I order a cup of coffee everyday and some days it hits that I've thrown away a paper cup of coffee every day. This project is inspired by the thought that 5 cups of coffee a week and 52 weeks in a year adds up to too many coffee cups thrown away.

Rain falls from the sky, but rarely when your thirsty summer plants need it!
Rather than rely on water from a faucet next summer, why not capture some free rain now? Put in rain barrels or create a garden that can take advantage of this precious resource!
Record your rainwater adventures he...

So far, our number of meat-free days is 70.
