In honor of Earth Day, we’ve put together a few ideas that are easy to incorporate into busy lives and really can make a difference for our planet.
Replace bottled water with reusable bottles. Each year more than 10 billion plastic water bottles end up as garbage in landfills and many plastic bottles leach chemicals. Head over to SIGG to find a great selection of lightweight, durable, eco-friendly, leak-proof water bottles and enter SIGGEARTH at checkout to score $5 off your bottle! BONUS: SIGG always contributes 1% of global sales to environmental causes, but if you use this code, they’ll donate an extra $1 for each bottle sold.
Stop eating meat on Monday. Meatless Monday is an international movement that offers people a powerful weekly cue to meaningful action. The environmental impact of meat production is too long to list. If forgoing meat just one day a week can make a difference, why not give it a try!
Use reusable bags when shopping. Whether you are grocery shopping or 
clothes shopping, take your own bags. Keep bags in the trunk of your car for trips to the grocery store and consider buying a compact bag you can carry in your handbag. We love ENVIROSAX chic, inexpensive and compact bags. This Earth Day, if you buy a pouch (set of five) you’ll be entered into a drawing for 20 new Planet Green™ bags.
Unplug! Appliances continue to draw energy even when on standby or not in use, so unplugging them can really be an energy savings.
Watch the premier of “Big Green Lies” on the Fine Living Network tonight - Earth Day, April 22 – 9pm ET/PT. The myth-busting video and television show, produced by Seventh Generation, gives a taste of the widespread confusion on green issues.
