green tip no. 2

even though it is probably more eco-friendly to send an e-card rather than a paper one, a lot of us (myself included) still feel like the only proper way to thank someone or extend birthday wishes is with a real, old fashioned greeting card. however, did you know that at most card/grocery/drug stores there is a section of cards made from recycled materials? they are well done and just as cute as the traditional (and often pricier) non-green counterparts.

so now, you can wish your sister "happy mother's day" or send a sympathy card to your friend and be totally green, too!

better yet - why not check out some of the handmade cards on etsy.com? many of them are also made with recycled material (some even have seeds in the paper so you can plant them) and since they are handmade, there isn't a lot of waste from production and all that...

the ones that you can plant after reading the card is awesome!
