About Me

Hi! I'm just an average person, trying to walk a little gentler on the earth.

My blog is all about the easy ways to reduce our footprint. We recently started hosting "Change The World Wednesdays" ... each week we challenge everyone to accomplish a specific green activity. The idea is to get as many people as possible doing the same green activity during the same time. I believe that together we can have a huge impact. And in the process, we learn a lot and ... have fun.

Won't you join us? Come on ... it's easy!

And now you can follow me on Twitter, too:

I've recently opened an Etsy shop. In it, I sell hand crafted earrings, most of which are made from repurposed jewelry. Stop in and take a look:
