Gift of Green: Earth Friendly Valentine's Day Idea
Still looking for a Valentines day gift that’s beyond the typical chocolate & flowers? BeGreen has eco-friendlyValentine’s solutions for any procrastinator. Or for anyone looking to carbon offset some not-so-earth friendly V-day plans. And it’s under $10.
You can purchase BeGreen’s Valentine’s “Gift of Green” lovers, and have three trees planted on behalf of your Valentine by going to BeGreen‘s website. For only $9.95 per gift, consumers get a certificate that acknowledges the purchase of the carbon offsets, which can be printed (or hopefully forwarded via email) and presented to that special someone.
BeGreen’s Carbon Offsets are a division of Green Mountain Energy Company, the nation’s leading provider of cleaner electricity and carbon offset solutions. Purchasing just the three trees will help the planet by:
- Absorbing approximately 2,000 pounds of carbon dioxide emissions throughout the trees’ lifetime.
- Providing important wildlife habitats
- Purifying rivers and streams
- The three trees will be planted in the Mendocino National Forest near San Francisco. This reforestation project is a partnership between BeGreen and American Forests to plant the seeds that will help reduce carbon in the air AND keep this habitat thriving for species like the Northern Spotted Owl
