1. It Ain't Easy Being Green
==============================
What is "being green" anyway? Is it being vegetarian? A paperless tree-hugger? Living like Kermit the frog? Expressing life through your heart chakra? Announcing your Irish heritage?

Most people today who align with the "green movement" are supportive of environmental issues. Here are some (not so easy) ways you can start thinking about being green:
--Use glass instead of plastic. But if you must use plastic, use those that are made from plants (non-GMO corn and wheat)
--Drink water from biodegradable plastic (less harmful to you too)http://www.biotaspringwater.com/
--Reuse unwanted clothing http://www.swaporamarama.com/
--Use nontoxic products in your household (Thieves Household Cleaner from Young Living is fabulous!) (Your YL Distributor or Young Living's Website)
--Read your newspapers online
--Compost your doggie doo-doo and your doo-doo too! http://www.envirolet.com/
--Green burials http://www.forestofmemories.org/

3. How to Find A Leprechaun
============================
The Leprechaun is an Irish fairy. He looks like a small, old man (about 2 feet tall) and is dressed like a shoemaker, with a cocked hat and a leather apron. According to legend, leprechauns are aloof and unfriendly, live alone, and pass the time making shoes. They also possess a hidden pot of gold. Treasure hunters can often track down a leprechaun by the sound of his shoemaker's hammer. If caught, he can be forced to reveal the whereabouts of his treasure, but the captor must keep their eyes on him every second. If the captor's eyes leave the leprechaun (and he often tricks them into looking away), he vanishes and all hopes of finding the treasure are lost. Here's a group in Mobile Alabama looking for a Leprechaun: http://tinyurl.com/jqfjl

4. Essential Oil Tip: Green Cleaning with Thieves
==================================================
Thieves was created based on research about four thieves who protected themselves with cloves, rosemary, lemon, cinnamon, and eucalyptus while robbing victims of the plague. The Thieves product line centers around the essential oil blend that has been studied at Weber State University and found to be 98.9% antimicrobial. The line also has the highly concentrated household cleaner that can be used on any surface. Order your Thieves Household Cleaner from your Young Living distributor or by going to Young Living's Website
