What did you do to on Earth Day? Hopefully you aren't one of those people who only do something "GREEN" on Earth Day.Everyday should be Earth Day!
I am not sure when I first heard the term of "green" (not being a color) but it seems that I've always known that I need to conserve energy and preserve Mother Earth.
Rookies of 'being green' can start with recycling, reusing and reducing with many little things and working their way up. No one expects you to live in a grass hut and eat 100% organic from your own yard as a lifestyle but if everyone just did some little things, everywhere....it could make a HUGE difference.
So to encourage you to think outside the box and keep treating each day as Earth Day, let's keep the 40th anniversary going...
I am hosting a "Live Green Together" prize pack from Cascadian Farm provided by MyBlogSpark! It has cereals and granola bars, including: Fruitful O´s cereal, Cinnamon Crunch cereal, Chocolate Chip Chewy granola bars, Dark Chocolate Almond Granola, Dark Chocolate Almond granola bars, Oats & Honey granola, and an eco-friendly grocery bag.
How do I enter, you are asking?First- I'd like you to go to Cascadian Farm page on Facebook. Choose from eight different pledges, ranging from reusing clothes to reducing your speed while driving on the highway, and find the one that fits your lifestyle. For each person that signs a pledge now through May 31, 2010, Cascadian Farm will donate $1, up to $40,000, to the Organic Farming Research Foundation, which fosters the improvement and widespread adoption of organic farming systems.
Second, leave a comment here telling me what you are doing to be GREEN to enter for the GINORMOUS prize pack. I was lucky enough to get one as well....oh my....we gots FIBER for months here! WOW. K-man already snagged the two boxes of granola bars to take on his bike rides!

I pledged to "Look in my refrigerator before a trip to the grocery store to practice food planning and be aware of what I eat."
We make our life greener by regularly recycling everything possible. We also use CFLs, Energy Star appliances, and reusable shopping bags. We combine driving trips to save mileage -- and turn things like lights off when not in use. *Thanks* for the giveaway!

I chose my pledge to be a food planner. I do that anyways, I hate wasting food.
I recycle, reuse grocery bags, shop 2nd hand, line dry...
How did I miss this until now? Oh we are a green, green family. We recycle, use cloth grocery bags, cloth napkins, compost and most importantly plant a garden every single year!
