Spring, Stars and Win Free Things!
21 comments

Want to find out how the stars are going green? Or want to know what’s in the stars for you? Better yet, want to send someone a green star? Great news, the stars are aligned at Care2!

Spring has arrived at Care2 Healthy and Green Living, and we are celebrating the birth of many great new things. The first is our “People Making a Difference” series. We will be bringing you interviews with celebrities and Care2 members who are greening their personal lives and are also helping to make a difference in their communities. We start off the series with Grammy Award-nominated guitarist Derek Trucks. Check out Mel’s interview and find out how to win one of Derek’s albums.

Also new to Care2: our astrology channel and daily astrology newsletter. Get a daily feng shui tip along with your essential daily dose of astrology and scopes for love, home & garden, and even your pets. Sign up for our astrology newsletter today!

We have a number of great free spring product giveaways as part of our new Conscious Consumer category – check out cute bags for the farmer’s market, fabulous heirloom seeds for your organic garden, and love lotions to share with your special someone.

And speaking of spending time with someone special, don’t forget to turn your lights out this Saturday night for Earth Hour. We have seven ways that you could spend the hour – or the entire evening – in delicious darkness.

Oh – and back to those stars….You know those green stars we all love to give and receive as thank-yous? Now they are not only green, but smart too — with the new smart stars you can tell a member why you’re giving them a green star. Send a star today!

And last, but certainly not least, we have added a number of new categories to Healthy & Green Living, including Garden & Nature, Crafts & Design, Fashion, and Holidays. Just click here to select any of the new categories for your personalized newsletter.

We hope that you are enjoying the lightness of Spring (or Fall if you are a resident of the Southern Hemisphere) and our new content and features.

Share your thoughts in the comment field below and you’ll be entered in a drawing to win a free eco-friendly Care2 tote bag! (One winner will be selected at random and announced on April 10.) We’d love to hear about things you enjoy, content you would like to see more of, or any other feedback you have. Thanks!

***Congratulations to Adria M., winner of the Care2 tote bag! And thanks to all for your comments and suggestions!***

Good stuff

You may have this already but I've seen on other sites like a Q&S section (Question and Solution). It will have one little question and answer every day. Example: How do you keep hamburger meat from sticking to your hands when making patties? Keep your hands wet. So simple!

Why aren't all new homes being built with a windmill and solar panels? It would be much cheaper and simpler than overhauling our entire power grid also our power supply (as a whole) would not be as susceptible to natural disasters and terrorist attacks.

Please don't have astrology! What does it have to do with anything in the real world? It's a pointless distraction from the worthwhile topics you cover.

thanku very much for releasing this newsletter. I get so much enjoyment out of it. There are so many interesting subjects to choose from it gets hard at times. I like the idea that I can make a difference and support all these worthy causes right here from my home in Australia. Thanku for making that possible. I look forward to seeing more issues in the future.
