Green Gifts Week: Buy Green

The holiday season is the time to celebrate family and friends by exchanging gifts. This week's tips will help you reduce your environmental impact while honoring this holiday tradition. 

Tip #3: Support Green Businesses

You can help fund green jobs this holiday season by purchasing goods or services from sustainable businesses. Gift certificates to local vegetarian restaurants, green spas, or nearby eco-hotels make thoughtful, low-impact presents. Need stocking stuffers?
