An Eco-friendly valentine idea...

10% of your purchase of roses will go to Oceanea http://www.oceana.org/index.php?id=1769&no_cache=1 to help protect the world's oceans. :hi:

2. That's pretty cool.

Is it just a portion of those roses, or are there other flowers you can buy on that site that will help oceans?

5. All I saw were roses; but you could always

donate in a loved one's name and send them a free Oceana Valentine e-card. :-)

9. It looks like

there are several selections that benefit various charities:

3. I'm gonna buy Liz Edwards some DU-approved light bulbs.

:yoiks:

6. Well now I HAVE to ask,

because I've been ignoring those threads since it just sounded like more BS...

What's the matter with her light bulbs?

8. I guess she's gonna wait until the old ones burn out before she replaces them

with more eco-friendly ones. That's a big issue for some.

4. Cool!! I really appreciate how eco-friendly YOU are, Goddess!

I've noticed that about you. :hug: :loveya: :thumbsup:

7. I've got a long way to go...

But I appreciate you noticing that I care. :hug:

It's hard to totally convert one's life to be kinder to the environment. I've just been trying to pick one or two things a year...

10. They also have

fair trade chocolates:

11. 10% of all purchases benefit Oceana; but in order for this to occur,

it's important to go to Organic Bouquet via Oceana's website/store link, which can be found on this page: http://www.oceana.org/index.php?id=1035

12. I wasn't insinuating that the

chocolates benefited Oceana. They have other bouquets that benefit other social causes (see my other post upthread.) I was merely pointing out that they had fair trade chocolate, too, which in and of itself is contributing indirectly to a social cause. :hi:

13. It's cool...

It also benefits Oceana when you buy it via their website; so there's twice as much good that comes from the purchase!

Mmm...Chocolate.... :)

14. Great idea!

I have no valentine but I will kick this for you.
