Sydney recently celebrated Earth Hour recently, and internationally they celebrated Earth Day today! In celebration of these special events, below are some fave tips on ways to be more eco-chic, courtesy of Kimberly at Hip Tranquil Chick

use reusable shopping totes. wash your yoga togs in cold water. buy food at your farmer's market. use compact fluorescent light bulbs. get a bike. give homemade goodies. shop eco-friendly designers and reused clothing stores. turn off the water while brushing your teeth. sip fair trade tea. plant trees. start a compost. use low-flow faucets and toilets. recycle your newspapers and pass your glossies along to a friend. practice on an eco-friendly mat. sip your water from a reusable water bottle and skip the plastic bottled water. carry your tea or coffee cup with you to have refilled by your favorite barista.

And as Paul McCartney would say... go vegetarian! Food for thought : )

PS - to celebrate Earth Day, my fave yoga magazine Yoga Journal are offering a digital copy of their April issue to all who go and ask for it! Nice! (just go to their site and follow the links)
