We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow the earth from our
children.
-Native American Proverb
We have been treating the Earth like we don't live on it.

Neutralize Your Carbon Footprint

You know who you are.  You eat out with plastic cups.  You drive by yourself when you can carpool.  You still use paper napkins.  You buy bananas.  And you don't even own a bike.  You are trying to be green but life just gets in the way.  I am here to tell you that you can neutrilize your non-green sins.  You can make the world a cleaner place without even getting out of your chair, unless you need to grab your wallet.  No, I am not selling anything.  I am asking you to plant a tree.  Relieved?

Nature Conservancy, along with the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), is running a campaign to plant a billion trees in the Amazon Rain Forest.  It is called (drum roll) "Plant a Billion Trees".  Anywho, all you need is a dollar (unless you are really big non-green sinner, then you need more) and the above organizations will plant a tree in the Amazon Rain Forest to help clean the air, make our planet more beautiful and cleanse your sinning non-green soul.  You see if you plant a tree that means you can drive more, but we won't do that.  We will choose to ride our bikes but still donate to see our earth, the only one we have, take another clean breathe of fresh air. 

So move it! CLICK BELOW. If you can't donate now I will always have the banner located on my sidebar, at least until I get 100 trees planted. 

One dollar, one tree, one planet.

Be Green
