Happy Earth Day! Stainless Steel Bottles


THE MISO MAYO GIVEAWAY WILL BE ENDING SOON! CHECK IT OUT A COUPLE OF POSTS BELOW!!

Happy Earth Day to all! Isn't it nice to know that every day just with our food choices we make effects the earth. It's nice to know I can feel good about that.

On another note, I'm in a very small group at my son's school, Go Green, there are only 4 of us. Our goal is to try to educate the kids about the environment and about recycling, reusing, etc. Last month we had a plastic bottle cap drive. Did you know that Aveda can recycle plastic caps and will use them for their packaging? It was such an easy drive and we collected thousands of caps. Aveda will send pre-paid ups shipping labels to send the caps back to them. Plastic bottle caps also don't take up much room. I have a bag hanging right out my door leading to the garage and everytime i'm done with laundry soap, shampoo, etc. I just throw my cap in the bag.

Today being Earth Day, Go Green purchased over 120 recycled stainless steel water bottles and had the schools logo printd on it. The school PTO backed us up with the money which was nice because our monies weren't that much. It's been a slow process as far as selling these but today being Earth Day, hopefully we can get more of these sold after school. Anyways this is just a small part in implementing green choices at the school. We are only selling them for $12.50 which is alot less than buying them at the store. Now if we could only get them to serve a vegan food option at the school! hee hee
