Even shifting a small part of your family's budget can accelerate the shift to sustainability. You help green the economy and society whenever you purchase from a green business - in your community or around the world. Here's one of my favorite stories about how a friend of mine put all of this into one basket. She surprised me a while back with a gift basket for my birthday. She knows me well and packed it full of treasures to pamper and delight me.
Baskets are important in our economy.
Unfortunately, this market basket is produced with enormous social and environmental costs. Switch to a basket of goods and services that can be sustainably produced by green businesses. Take the basket my friend gave me. It nourishes my spirit and nurtures the growth of a green economy. The purchase of the chocolates and bath oil help expand sustainable agriculture.
