C
The materials of a product are usually our first focus. What is it made of? Are there any harmful chemicals in it? Green products are made of more natural materials which are free from harmful chemicals, so they can be good for our physical health.
Packaging is important. How is a product packaged? Is it over-packaged? We’d better choose glass, metal and paper packaging, as these can be reused or more easily recycled. We can also look for less packaging or even choose unpackaged products whenever possible.
The location(地点) matters. Where is a product made? Where do we buy it? Think about the energy used to transport it. So try to choose local products. When it comes to food, it is a good idea to order directly from local farmers, shop at markets and buy fruit in season. Buying from stores near our houses is also a good choice because we can go there without driving a car.
Look into what the company tells us about their products. It’s easy to say that a product is “green” or “all natural”, but the words may be too good to be true. So, much of the information about a product should be taken with a grain of salt. After all, companies try to make us believe that their products are environmentally friendly.

### C
产品的材料通常是我们首先关注的。它是由什么制成的？里面有有害化学物质吗？绿色产品由更天然的材料制成，这些材料不含有害化学物质，所以它们对我们的身体健康有益。
包装很重要。产品是如何包装的？它是否过度包装了？我们最好选择玻璃、金属和纸质包装，因为这些包装可以重复使用或更容易回收。只要有可能，我们也可以寻找包装更少的产品，甚至选择无包装的产品。
产地很重要。产品是在哪里生产的？我们在哪里购买它？考虑一下运输它所消耗的能源。所以尽量选择本地产品。说到食物，直接向当地农民订购、在市场购物以及购买应季水果都是个好主意。从我们家附近的商店购买也是一个不错的选择，因为我们可以不用开车去那里。
仔细查看公司向我们介绍的关于其产品的信息。说一种产品是“绿色的”或“纯天然的”很容易，但这些话可能好得难以置信。所以，对于产品的很多信息，我们都应该持保留态度。毕竟，公司试图让我们相信他们的产品是环保的。
