About the Live Green! Earth Month Challenge

The Live Green! Earth Month Challenge is our way of bringing the Earth Day spirit to your daily routine! You'll select sustainably-minded challenges that you want to partake in within the categories (food, fresh water, wildlife, people, forests, oceans, and climate), and gain yourself points for completing them throughout the month of April. Not only will you be doing your part to give us a healthy planet, you'll also be entered into the running for some sustainable goodies and gift cards! Read below on how to participate, and join us to Get Your Eco On!
