...who's birthday??, no Happy Earth Day! I swear back in 8th grade I was such a Save the Earth fanatic! My friend Leigh & I made tapes of our parents' 60's music, covered our walls (& ceiling) with Save the Earth! posters, Reuse Reduce Recycle!... bought only dolphin-free tuna...joined Surfrider, WWF, adopted a whale, boycotted L'oreal.... ahhh. Well I believe I am still somewhat eco-friendly and my family tries do our part. I could do more though, but I love that Bryce is into recycling...so maybe I am rubbing off on him. There is so much Go green hype nowadays...but ever how annoying some of it may be, it is encouraging that people are trying to do something. I think that we all can make a difference in this world for our children's future {& great-grandchildren's future} even with the little things
Support local farms--> check out http://www.localharvest.org/ to search your zip code for local farmers markets, shops, etc.
Buy cruelty-free products
I know you've heard it b4...If every American home replaced just one light bulb with a CFL bulb, we would save enough energy to light more than 3 million homes for a year, more than $600 million in annual energy costs, and prevent greenhouse gases equivalent to the emissions of more than 800,000 cars. Really the bulbs we put in have lasted forever!! Try it

i try to do what i can...but we have become so used to having so much...that it takes a lot of effort to undo bad behaviors....like driving everywhere. i think i have become much more green since i had a baby. i think it is the need to know you have done something to leave the earth a little better than it was when you arrived. who knows.
