With your help, Purina will contribute up to $75,000 to protect green spaces. |
Dear XXXXXX, |
Would you and your pet like to make a commitment to help protect green spaces? |
Purina® has re-united with Evergreen on the "Paws For The Planet" program in a continued effort to enhance and restore green spaces across Canada. With your help, Purina® will fund a $50,000 sponsorship to Evergeen to help protect green spaces. |
To help make Canada greener and be a more eco-friendly pet owner, make a pledge to Paws For The Planet by clicking here. For every sign up, Purina® will make a donation to Evergreen to plant a Tree, Shrub or Wildflower across Canada. (Every sign-up counts and will help us donate an additional $25,000 to Evergreen.) Now that's green! |
Visit PawsForThePlanet.ca for eco-friendly pet tips
and more information about this program. |
The inspiration for this blog came after reading Vanessa Farquharson's book, Sleeping Naked is Green, and wondering if her new eco-lifestyle was really applicable to a family of 5 that was already fairly environmentally friendly. At the urging of a friend, I took on the challenge of trying to improve my family's "green-ness", using the book as a template. This blog will record our attempts to improve our environmental foot-print one small change at a time.

Hi Eco Mama:
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to say hello and let you know I am still following your blog regularly! Thanks for the Paws For The Planet lead: I have often wondered what the carbon foot print of my goofy calico cat (Miss Sweet Pea) might be. Since I haven't tracked down all the sources of her (vetranarian-perscribed) old cat renal health diet food, joining the Paws thing might be a good stop gap. Keep the posts coming- I click on your link frequently in anticipation of your latest idea/adventure/change!- Deb Seymour (www.debgoesgreen.com)
Thanks Deb, for the support. Now that the craziness of Sept is over, I'm hoping to start posting a little more regularly! :)
