How cute is she? OK, now back to our regular newsletter. What an amazing turnout for the Climate Rally on February 17th in D.C. Tiffany makes a guest appearance this month with her summary of the historic event. Also this month., Robin and Silvia both have some fantastic suggestions for greening your home and avoiding toxins in your indoor air. Those toxins are everywhere, not just in our furniture but also in our makeup: some eyeliners have been found to contain toxins linked to cancer. Thankfully, Chryso has her review of low hazard eyeliners in her monthly review of safe cosmetics
We also have some very unique new items this month from our friends at the Broadway Green Alliance, some awesome new handmade jewelry from Bottled Up, and some comfy new eco friendly clothing selections from LUR apparel. Don't forget your 10% discount for being a loyal reader of this newsletter! Have a wonderful weekend and we'll be back really soon with our March newsletter! Best regards, Gia Machlin President and CEO Please feel free to forward this newsletter to your friends and family!

Take EcoAction!
The US is about to treat the world to the first genetically modified meat: a mutant salmon that could wipe out wild salmon populations and threaten human health - but we can stop it now before our plates are filled with suspicious Frankenfish.
The consultation is happening right now and we have a real chance to keep mutant fish off the menu. Sign to say NO to Frankenfish and share widely -- when we reach 1 million, our call will be officially submitted to the public consultation.
