Green Gift Monday – Responsible Gifting

Green Gift Monday is an alternative (or improvement) to Cyber Monday, November 28th, the biggest online shopping day of the year.

Promoted on by The Nature Conservancy, this awareness date represents conservation as opposed to consumption. Instead of buying more stuff, dontate to your favorite community organization, volunteer, or commit to conservation by cutting energy costs in your own life. DIY projects are a great way to cut energy waste, replacing inefficient appliances or learning creative solutions from others can really make a difference.

If you simply must buy something, why not look into purchasing energy efficient products or support eco-friendly businesses?

I for one will be adopting a Coral Reef and probably a few acres of Rainforest.
