Here are some of the gifts that were unveiled at my family's house on Christmas:

Endangered Species-brand chocolate
A fruit bowl made of recycled chopsticks
Jade-colored drinking glasses made of recycled glass
Worldchanging: A User's Guide for the 21st Century
A bamboo shirt
Soy crayons
A gift addressed from my family "to the Earth" (my sister opened it) -- documentation that carbon emissions from our plane trip to Italy were offset thru Native Energy

My personal favorite: a deed certifying that I had adopted a fox. That is, care for an injured fox over the next year is sponsored in my name. Hm, too bad they didn't tell me the gender. I think I'll name it Val if male and Vilma if female.

In summary, we had a "green" Christmas in more than one sense.

Someone commented that the Green policy of donating money to a charity in exchange for polluting reminded him of the Catholic church selling indulgences in exchange for sinning. Some people are weird.

Grats on the foxy, hope he or she grows up strong. :)
