What makes you happy during the holiday season? Getting stuff? Giving stuff? But the enjoyment barely lasts through the New Year. Plus, all that holiday stuff adversely affects our environment by eating up scarce energy resources and leaving behind clouds of carbon.

We throw away 25% more waste during the holiday season! You can REDUCE holiday stuff this season by giving a Green Gift with a donation to St. Louis Earth Day.

Your Green Gift requires no fuel-laden delivery charges or tree-destroying wrapping paper. Just a click or two and you’re Green Gift lives on and on!

Your family and friends will be thrilled to receive such a thoughtful gift in their honor. We’ll even send a Green Gift message, electronically of course, letting them know that their name (and yours) will be listed as Green Heroes on the St. Louis Earth Day web site all year long! Better yet, we’ll include you both as Green Heroes in the 19th Annual St. Louis Earth Day Festival program on April 20.

Your donation will help sustain our programs, including Recycling On the Go, the region’s first event recycling program that has already diverted 11 tons of recyclable material from area landfills.

Thank you for giving a truly meaningful Green Gift that will provide for a greener life all year round.
