It IS easy bein' green!

And here are a few ways:

Support Tonic. They carry 4 limited edition t-shirts made from bamboo and organic cotton. Each shirt supports a specific cause. For example, buy The Tree Tee and plant 25 trees in North America. Or the Net Tee and send three bed nets to sub-Sahara Africa to combat malaria. Why the hell not?!

Stop junk mail and plant trees by becoming a member of GreenDimes. I've got ties to this one friends...my brother was once an employee, AND the company was founded by a dear friend's husband (who jump started Tonic, as well).

GreenDimes

Buy handmade at Etsy. Visit their AMAZING website to purchase one-of-a-kind items or to sell a few of your own creations. Why buy handmade? Find out HERE.

Check out Sam Davidson's and Stephen Moseley's book New Day Revolution: How to Save the World in 24 Hours. Be surprised by the little PRACTICAL things you can do daily to help save the planet.

That was cool of Kendra to notice and comment. And kind of you to plug greendimes. The service has truly wiped out almost all of the crap at our PO Box and home address, which leaves only Netflix movies and Elaine's bills. Yes, its true, she hasn't figured out how to pay bills online, but we're working on that.
