Production of the 29 billion polyethylene terephthalate (PET) water bottles used in the United States (about one bottle per person every four days) requires nearly 900,000 tons of the plastic, the equivalent of more than 17 million barrels of crude oil annually.

You can visit it here:

What is MiniCity? Well it's kind of like Tamagotchi meets Sim City. It's an online city that grows and developed as the members of that city visit it.

Together, we can try to develop a virtual city that meets the expectations of eco-friendly minded individuals, like yourselves.

Check it out and have a little fun, today.

Many of us have given consideration to the "scents" we find in our collection of aromatherapy candles, ensuring that they are derived from essential oil and not from petroleum synthetics.

But, what about the candle? Soy and Beeswax candles are slowly gaining popularity; but, many of the candles produced today are made of paraffin or a paraffin wax blend. Even the common miniature-sized tea lights used to heat aromatherapy diffusers, are commonly made from paraffin.

In a process that hasn't changed much in decades, record labels send out CDs packaged with printed promotional materials to what are hoped to be the right influencers at radio stations. Radio station personnel, bombarded by these packages, end up not having the time to go through them all and many end up in the trash.
