Green Summer

With Summer vacation and children out of school, you will appreciate www.LocalKidzStuff.com for local happenings. Not interested in playing referee all Summer long? I searched "Green Summer Activities" and "Green Summer Fun". See what you can find.

Food, Inc.
There is an amazing movie coming out this summer called “Food, Inc.” If you value your health, and want to make better decisions for yourself and your family, check out the trailer. I didn't find a location near me playing it yet. But hope to before Summer is over.

Be a Green American!
I find this extremely impressive! It has always griped me to find American flags made in China! Woohoo! not only are these 100% American made, but they are made of recycled water/soda bottles. Check them out today!! Independence day is just a month a way. www.letsgogreen.biz P.S. they have eco-friendly trash bags too!

GoRecycle411
GoRecycle411 is a Facebook application that allows you to enter how many cans, bottles, newspapers, or office paper you’ve recycled and the application tells you how much energy you saved and keeps a tally. It then translates your energy into how many barrels of oil, trees, gallons of water, pounds of carbon dioxide, kilowatts of electricity, and cubic yards of garbage you save. It also keeps track of how much everyone using the application is saving. Interesting! : )
