Help feed others while Playing!

This is a GREAT idea as I spend a ton of time online doing nothing. At least this time someone will benefit from my mindless surfing.

I found this site on treehugger.com, which might I add I LOVE and read on a daily basis. Anyway I was breezing thru and happened upon this article for FreeRice.
Basically all you do is match the correct word with the definition. For each word you get right they donate 10 grains of rice thru the United Nations World Food Program.

I played it and actually knew a lot of the words! I played for about 4 min. and earned 300 grains of rice. I do have to wonder who exactly counts these grains of rice, but whoever does it bless their counting mind!

Try it!!! Its fun and keeping your brain sharp is important too!!!

Shop & Give!

So I was browsing my green sites again and came across this site.
What it does is when you follow a link to popular websites (like Old navy, amazon, etc) they will give a certain % to a charity from their list!

Home Improvement Ideas!

Hey all!
You all know that James works in constructions and its not the most eco-friendly business. However we were browsing around Craigslist the other night and came across this add from Habitat for Humanity.

They have their own store of stuff--appliances, windows, doors, tile-you name it they probably have it!
And to think that you will not only be helping the environment by reusing used, sometimes new!, things while at the same time helping a great charity.

Here's their site for the Tacoma Region, they could have some in other areas, but I'm not sure!
Check it out!!!
