Tackle Thursday: Ecological Footprint

[The Little Seed]

Everyday we consume precious resources that come from the Earth, whether it be furniture from a tree or fish from the ocean... and sometimes we forget how limited those resources really are. We hear it on the news, or read about it in a science journal, but climate change and the environmental problems can be hard to relate to on a personal level. Everything we do and everything we buy uses land, plants, animals, and fuel to produce! We know you love being green just as much as we do, and are always on the hunt for ways to be even GREENER! Here's a cool way to find out!
