Make your Valentines GREEN. We tend to go overboard and buy gifts like stuffed animals and plastic thingy’s that end up getting tossed. Even the plastic gift cards are harmful to the environment. Each year, 75 million pounds of PVC is dumped into landfills from plastic gift card waste. If you are going to give a gift card go for the electronic and paperless option, an eGift card. OR Make your own gift certificates for an experience. Any busy person would appreciate a handmade gift certificate for a homemade dinner, doing laundry for a week or any other task you know they would appreciate. Get creative.
