		<title>Greener Pastures&#8230; Healthier Eggs!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[You go to the market, and you pick up a carton of eggs. They&#8217;re marked &#8220;Cage Free&#8221; or &#8220;Free Range&#8221;, and they&#8217;re surrounded by other organic produce. You figure they&#8217;re worth every extra penny they cost beyond the low price of standard eggs, because you&#8217;ve ensured that the chickens that made them were able to [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Million Tree Challenge</title>
		<description><![CDATA[About 80% of our Earth&#8217;s forest has been cut down or destroyed at the hands of humans. This deforestation is responsible for 20% of global warming, and the displacement of thousands of animals from their natural homes.
Reforestation is our only hope for regaining the prestige of our natural forests, and in honor of Earth Day [...]]]></description>

		<title>SafeTrees First</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Our society relies heavily on a variety of resources, wood being chief among them. Thankfully, unlike oil, wood is a renewable resource that we have the power to responsibly manage and regenerate. However, as we&#8217;ve seen in the past years&#8217; astronomical depletion of our rain forests worldwide, losing a total 8% of the earth&#8217;s rainforest [...]]]></description>

		<title>Kids Who Care!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The following was written by Emily Sulich who, already at 9 and a half years old, knows the importance of taking care of our Earth! Here is her lovely acrostic poem and message:
&#8220;Earth is our home that we love and adore and we have to take good care of it to survive!
Everyone makes a big [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Art of Giving</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Holiday Season has come and gone just as quickly as it always seems to do, and somewhere between the furry of gifts and cards and wrapping paper, this year got us thinking about the true spirit of giving. Though we may feel as if our loved ones, and we ourselves, are not particularly in [...]]]></description>

		<title>It&#8217;s All In The Bag</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In the ebb and flow of eco-consciousness, one constant villain has always risen in the tide: the plastic grocery bag. Plastic bags seem to litter our streets and become bothersome clutter in our kitchen cabinets over time. However, the unfortunate truth is that their negative impact is more far-reaching.
Plastic bags frequently litter our environment, and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Warning: Low-Flying Particulates!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Lately, despite the beautiful autumn weather, I&#8217;ve been feeling like what I wanted most was a breath of fresh air.  At first I thought I could get quasi-metaphysical about it, relating my inclinations to a desire for change, but between working in the Big Apple, traversing the subway daily, and living in a century-old home [...]]]></description>

		<title>Green Halloween</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, its almost that time again: Halloween. I love the holiday. There’s nothing better than watching kids throwing candy wrappers on the ground, and seeing rows of our neighbors&#8217; houses wrapped in toilet paper and silly string. There are the cavities, the dirty costumes&#8230; oh, and don’t forget the wasted decorations in the garbage the [...]]]></description>
