Conserve-Action: A Green Halloween

All the packaging around Halloween-- the candy, the costumes, the decorations-- got me thinking: what if I just make one little change each holiday? By the end of a calendar year I will have earned my place on Santa's good girl list and helped the earth in the process. So I googled the question and here are 6 easy ways to make an eco-difference this Halloween:

  • First of all--walk. Don't drive.
  • Buy an organic pumpkin.
  • Bake the pumpkin seeds for a healthy snack or simply toss into the yard for the birds.
  • Compost that pumpkin.
  • Pass on the plastic bags for trick-or-treating and use a pillowcase or other reusable bag.
  • Dance by the light of the moon. In other words, turn off that spooky outdoor lighting. What's more spooky that an (almost) full moon?

Hey there just wanted to give you a quick heads up.
The text in your content seem to be running off the screen in Ie.
I'm not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with web browser compatibility but I figured I'd post to let you know.
The design and style look great though! Hope you get the issue resolved soon.
Cheers
