Bring Me Up: The Environment

So you're telling me vodka is green?
Perhaps you have an enormous supply of vodka on hand and you want to know other ways to use it other than just drinking it?

Well, that is part of what "being green" is all about; finding several different ways to use one item.

According to thedailygreen.com, "Many people have reported that if they immediately pour vodka over an area that has contacted poison ivy, the alcohol will wash away the culprit, urushiol oil, and they won't experience an uncomfortable reaction. Some have said that the vodka needs to be at least 100 proof to work."

Another interesting thing you can do with vodka is to spray it on your clothes. Apparently spraying the alcohol on your clothes will keep them smelling fresh. Simply spritz your clothes, then hang to dry in a well-ventilated area. (Do a spot-test first to be safe.)

Vodka kills odor-causing bacteria, but doesn't leave a scent when dry.

Kind of makes you wonder who pondered and than tested these interesting rules of thumb. =o)
