Product Description
New for 2009, a calendar that makes living green hip, easy, and funa full year of doable daily tips for walking more softly on the planet. Tips like forgoing energy-sucking air purifiers for a few air-filtering houseplants. Like drinking organic beerbetter for you and the earth. Like conserving water while brushing your teeth (if only 10,000 people turned off the spigot every day for a year, we'd save enough water to grow wheat for 160,000 loaves of bread). Written with cheekiness and wit, it's a calendar that makes it simple to make a difference. Size: 6" w x 5.5" h.

This is great once again. It has great tips so if you are looking to be a bit more green and/or more friendly towards the earth this is great for someone just starting out or someone who does a bit more.

I was hoping there would be more everday living suggestions but that wasn't the case.. it was going to be a present but I didn't give it..

2009 Living Green Page-A-Day Calendar / 0761149716
Okay, I admit a moment of irony when purchasing this calendar. I wondered, "Will the first green tip be 'Don't buy Page-a-Day calendars'?" But it's kind of a tradition where I work to buy a Page-a-Day calendar (you've got to have something to look forward to every morning, I guess), and I've memorized all the Dilberts ever published, so this seemed the next best choice.
Though the new year hasn't started yet, I've been cheating and thumbing ahead in my calendar. There are a lot of good tips here, things that I hadn't even thought of myself, even though I've been trying to 'live green' for over a year now, and have several books on the topic. Everything here seems pretty practical, too - I haven't run across anything like 'Give up toilet paper' or something similarly drastic.
Another thing nice about this calendar is that it's an easy way to introduce green concepts to non-green people - I'm one of the few people in the office who recycles regularly, but these tips drive home just how much can be done if everyone chips in a tiny bit. And since the calendar sits out on my desk, several people have noted it in passing and might take that little bit of advice to heart. Oh, and I also recycle the calendar pages, so there's also that.
 Worst "green" idea ever? December 19, 2008

Let's save the environment one day at a time. By creating a page-a-day calendar with one discarded page each day. Sure, it might go in the recycle bin, but it will probably go in the garbage, adding to the problem. There's got to be a better idea than this...

Being a pretty green conscious person to begin with, I expected this to be full of tips and info I already knew. However, it is full of things I hadn't even thought of and that are easy to implement.
I would definitely recommend this calendar.
