Reduce your carbon hoofprint! Covering everything from environmentally sensitive trail riding to building a green barn from the ground up, The Green Guide for Horse Owners and Riders is packed with simple, practical ways in which you can contribute to a healthier environment every day. Whether you keep dozens of horses or rent a stall, you’ll find dozens of suggestions for improving your practices and preserving land, water, and energy, such as:
• Power your barn with renewable energy
• In parks, ride only on equestrian-designated trails
• Store your tractor near your haystack to save fuel
• Situate outdoor arenas on high ground to prevent flooding
• Choose a green alternative to pressure-treated lumber in building projects
• Give your horse sustainably grown feed from a local source
• Collect rainwater for watering horses and fields
• Use or sell composted horse manure
• Locate fuel tanks, storage facilities, and manure piles away from all water sources
• Implement a workable pasture-management schedule
• Replace harsh chemical cleaners with natural alternatives
• As in other parts of your life: Reduce, reuse, and recycle
