Write an article based on this "Look in the suburbs right outside of urban areas. Consider moving to a city with cheaper apartment options. Look for an apartment with a smaller square footage. Choose an apartment that’s further away from public transportation."
article: Living just outside a city can cut your rent down by hundreds of dollars. Check out the surrounding suburban areas and focus your search on apartments in these cheaper areas. If you work in the city, this is a great option for saving some money and keeping your commute time reasonable. If your living situation is flexible and you’re really looking to get the best deal, think about changing your living situation. Highly populated cities like New York City and San Francisco generally have much higher rent because of the high demand. Instead, look for cities like Memphis, Tulsa, Indianapolis, and Louisville, which have record-low apartment rent. Even if it’s not your dream home, a lower square footage will mean a lower monthly rate. During your search, check out apartment buildings with smaller rental options, such as 400-600 square feet. Apartments that are positioned conveniently near public transportation often cost more, so if you don’t need the extra convenience, go for an apartment that’s further away. This option can really help cut down on your rent price if you work from home, have a car, or don’t mind a longer commute.

article: It's not always possible to dispose of food immediately, such as if garbage collection is weekly. Leaving it in the garbage until then can generate smells, attract animals, and breed flies. Ideally it should be made of glass, such as a pickle or spaghetti sauce jar, with a tight-fitting lid.  Plastic jars can also be used, but may leak some odor. Sealable metal cans, such as coffee cans, can be used, but may create a rust ring if left in sink. Cardboard containers, like the cylinders oatmeal comes in, should be avoided.  They may leak when they get wet from decomposing food. Ideally the jar should be small enough for a single use.  Don't reopen it later, as this will let odor and potentially flies or fruit flies out, unless it has been kept frozen.  (It's also possible to dump the contents in the garbage and then rinse and reuse the slop jar, but this is messy, and should be done outside.) This will halt the decomposition process and kill any insects or larva.  This method can either be used in conjunction with a slop jar, or else large items, like a watermelon rind, can be placed in the freezer whole.  However, it's easy to forget these items on garbage day, so a Post-it note on the trash can is a good reminder.

Write an article based on this "Consider ecological and social effects. Prevent pollution. Involve the community. Conserve water and energy. Incorporate the three R's. Pay attention to sourcing."
article:
In order to be considered a green business, ecological and social effects must always be taken into consideration and must be put ahead of profits when creating a product or selling a service. For example, this means that products should not be created in factories that exploit human labor for low wages. To be a green business, you must vow to be cognizant of both people and the environment. A green business will minimize the amount of toxins included in any product. In addition, they will mitigate the toxins that are produced in association with the production of their product to make sure that there is no harmful influence on people and/or the environment. For example, this includes the guarantee that manufacturing and delivery processes are environmentally friendly. A green business will become integrated with the community in which it operates. It will encourage employee volunteerism, donations, and cause marketing. This can involve events such as forums to educate and encourage consumers to be more educated about the tenants of green business and how to support green businesses in their community. A green business will keep all consumption of consumables such as water and energy to as minimal a level as possible. All waste and pollution should be kept to a minimum. When possible, alternative fuel sources should be used as a source of energy. The “three R's” are reduce, reuse, and recycle. Green businesses make these activities a priority in order to lessen their environmental impact. Green businesses will source their materials from green suppliers and make use of natural products whenever possible. In addition to using green suppliers, green businesses will also source locally whenever possible, even if cheaper materials are available elsewhere.
