All I Want For Xmas...

Hi friends & fam-

It’s that time of year, and I hope this finds you in the holiday spirit!

To those of you who asked me what it was I wanted for my birthday back in May, I directed towards a few charities instead of purchasing me any gifts. And, where that is a really awesome way to support those organizations who need awareness and support – I feel that we can all bring it a little closer to home. We can all make a difference, and all it takes is the first step whether it be a small one or a nice big leap – the point is to continue the journey. I know a couple of you asked what I wanted for Xmas (or Channukah) already, and this is it! I really do have everything I could possibly need or want this year (have you SEEN my shoe collection?!)...

So instead of a present for myself, for the holidays I would like you to take the $ or € you would normally spend on a gift for me and put it towards products for your every day life and home that are earth-friendly. My hope is to introduce you to these products, and that you may continue to use them from here on out. (Sometimes all we need is that first reason for change!)

The average American generates about 15,000 pounds of carbon dioxide every year from personal transportation, home energy use and from the energy used to produce all of the products and services we consume. You can calculate to see how much CO2 you produce each year.

After reducing your emissions you can do even more by going "carbon neutral." By supporting clean renewable energy, you can effectively neutralize your personal CO2 emissions. Your small investment will ensure that for every ton of carbon dioxide you are emitting, a ton of carbon dioxide will not be released into the atmosphere. Go NEUTRAL!
