Things we should always buy "green":
#1 Paint
Why: Most paint contains VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds), which evaporate into the air, creating health hazards for people.
What to buy: low or, ideally, no-VOC paint.
Where to buy it: I did a quick search on google and it looks like Home Depot, Lowe's and Sherwin Williams all have at least some no- VOC paints. The best thing to do would probably be to go to your favorite paint store and ask if they have any low or no Voc paints. National green pages (www.nationalgreenpages.org) also lists several places where you can order paint.
