Earth Day

My small contribution...I purchased the $0.99 reusable grocery bag from Publix. And then 2 days later at work, they hand out free reusable grocery bags. In the Grocery bag, was the New York Times Bestseller, "the green book," by Elizabeth Rogers and Thomas M. Kostigen. It's a 200 page book that talks about the small things that you can do to conserve energy and be more "green." One tip I'll leave you with...

Try Organic Wine. Why? Because...

"A bottle of conventionally produced wine may contain up to 250 different types of chemicals. If you're a wine connoisseur, a year's worth of organic wine purchases would keep roughly 2 pounds of fertilizers and 50 grams of pesticides out of the environment (and out of your wine glass)."

Do you have any green-conscious activities that you do?

As a side note, I'm officially old because I want coffee but am wanting to steer clear of cafinated...so I actually pondered getting decafinated coffee. Who does that? Oh yeah...old people. :-)
