‘Tis the season to be jolly, but the one thing that doesn’t make me jolly is wrapping gifts, which I usually leave to almost the last minute; So this year I promised myself to not only get on top of it, but to do so in an eco-friendly way, rather than just generating piles of glittering trash. Let me tell you…I had to use great restraint from using our Campbell showroom gift-wrapping display!
After searching around for the best way to wrap my gifts in a way that gives back to the Earth, I found this article from way back in 2007, Top 10 Green Gift Wrap Ideas, at a very cool website, GAIAMlife.com, which is devoted to healthy living in general.
Our national farewell to the incandescent bulb — essentially the same device Edison patented in 1880 — is not coming with ease.
