# 1. Grill green. Hamburgers aren’t the only things coming from your charcoal grill. Environmental pollutants from burning charcoal, plus the environmental cost of creating it in the first place, make that method the least green grilling option, so go with a natural gas (the ecofriendliest choice) or an electric grill, if you can. If you can’t give up charcoal, look for a natural brand of coals not soaked in petroleum, and light up with a chimney starter instead of lighter fluid. Also, consider the ecofootprint of what you’re grilling. Our resident Nickel Pincher suggests you try grilling seafood or pizza. |
