girlawhirl's doing a bit of prep work for next week's earth day Apr 17, 2008
|
|
And full of good intentions, somehow she ends up with a T-shirt. She realizes that the celebration of Earth Day is not about consumption and, truth be told, Mother Earth does not care what she's wearing, but she just can't help ordering this Cool It T from gaiam.com.
Certainly, it goes without saying that she'll be sure to Zero Out® all emissions associated with the packaging and shipping of the T when she checks out online at gaiam.com
|
It's part of their Thoughtful Tees series, which includes eight different shirts to benefit eight non-profit organizations chosen by Gaiam customers, from the World Wildlife Fund® to Action Against Hunger, Heifer® International, Doctors Without Borders and more. Girlawhirl will be happy to sport her Cool It T, which benefits the Conservation Fund.
