Gifts: The Gifts That Keep On Giving
By
Irv Weinberg
The
old adage says, "It's better to give than to receive."
When you choose a gift that's environmentally conscious, you can

that's made with non-toxic materials, that's made with fair trade
and fair labor practices, everyone in the long chain from gift
designer to gift maker, from gift giver to gift getter, gets something
better. And we're all better off for it. Read

Lighting
Up is Good for You
"Holiday Lights Campaign" encourages giving CFL bulbs
this holiday season.
(Eureka, CA.) Lighting up is good for you, your pocketbook and
the planet. How you ask? Simple, all you have to do is make the
switch to compact fluorescent light bulbs which are better for
the environment, save money and last longer than incandescent
bulbs. If every American changed just one incandescent bulb to
