DON'T FORGET TO WEAR (BE) GREEN

March 17th is St. Patrick's day. The day people wear green to avoid being pinched (or avoid wearing green if being pinched is more your bag). So on this celebration of greenness I thought it would be good to incorporate another kind of green. Environmentalism. Here are a few easy ways to be more green:
1. Don't use shopping bags. Bring your own or carry the item out.
2. Recycle. Googleing recycle centers in your area is sure to give some locations to take your paper, cans, and plastics.
3. Unplugging unused electronics when not in use saves earth resources and money.

THE CONVIENENT TRUTH: YOU CAN GO GREEN

I have not seen Al Gore's work that earned him a Noble Peace Prize. I do know that many of the earth's resources can be preserved by the simple rule-reduce, reuse, recycle.
Erin and I have began our journey to "go green". Some simple things can be done like turning off your lights when you are not using them. Pay attention to the heat and air conditioning used. For those of you who live in Memphis, there are recycle opportunities. I know of spots by Wild Oats and a center near Cooper-Young in Midtown. There are great ways to learn how to go green. A website I recommend is www.treehugger.com

Help the environment. Peace.
