Footprint Fav's...


OK, so we have been seeing green everywhere we go lately, it's awesome to see so much energy being devoted to creating awareness of our responsibility to this planet!

Here is a list of a couple of sites that we have recently come across that have been created to heighten awareness of becoming more eco-responsible:

www.green.cbc.ca

Have you ever seen the amazing George Stroumboulopoulos? The sky is your limit on this website… this is basically what we wish we would have created…. bah humbug… but you should definitely check it out because it rocks our world… seriously. You can create mini blogs, an account, and track how much of an effect on greenhouse gases your small acts of green impact. It’s pretty cool… like cooler than ice…

www.environment.gov.sk.ca/gogreen

This site has small ways to alter your lifestyle to become more eco- friendly... all while saving money (of course, the government is endorsing it...)

www.greenyourdecor.com

Great décor ideas and easy ways to green-up your living space.

We have been doing some online research and discovering that there is a plethora of websites, blogs, stores, and information to be found… if only you put your mind to it.

This is a MASSIVE task, like bigger than a woolly mammoth… let’s talk about millions of sites and programs and challenges out there… it is easy to become overwhelmed and completely shut down, claiming that this task is too difficult…. But our goal is to become your one-stop-shop to finding neat information and helpful tools to create a healthier lifestyle for us and those around us.

We are going to be trying (painfully) to find a focus, please bear with us!

Once again, let us know what you think about green products….

P.S. Sometimes the comments section on the blog does not work, but please do not despair, send us your comment in email format at fightingfootprints@gmail.com and we will be sure to post it within the same day!


Stay green, not mean,


Chanel and Heather
