Did you know that 23.8 billion pounds of discarded clothing end up in America’s landfills each year?
That’s why I was excited to hear about Levi’s latest project.
Together, they and Goodwill, have announced A Care Tag for Our Planet.
It’s aimed at putting billions of pounds of unwanted clothing to good use instead of into landfill.
Beginning in January 2010, the Levi’s(R) brand will be the first major retailer to include messaging on product care tags that encourages people to donate unwanted clothing.
It’s a great green move that couldn’t come sooner!

Master P is doing a bit of good for the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays.
Well, a lot of good, actually.
He’s teamed up with OneMillionGifts.org by giving his money and time to help feed and clothe at least 1 million of our world’s less fortunate.
A large number of those being assisted are children and their parents who lack education, are homeless, have mental or physical disabilities, have life threatening illnesses, have parents facing addiction or come from single family homes or the foster care system.
Master P, who himself grew up in poverty, says the initiative will also help prevent those in need from committing crimes in order to get the gifts they may not be able to afford.
You too can make a real difference this holiday. For more information, go to www.OneMillionGifts.org.
