Go green for Valentine's Day!

I'm not a huge fan of celebrating Valentine's Day -- due to a mix of my being single, plus the fact that, along with Christmas, people feel pressured to do things they could do on any other day -- but I am a huge fan of green ideas. Especially when said ideas just take a little thought and no money.

And so, I present: TreeHugger.com's Green Valentine Gift Guide. Granted, some of these ideas require buying a gift (i.e. the organic, fair-trade coffee beans; the chocolate gift box set; the bath & beauty oils; etc.), but some simply require a little bit of thought (the idea of a romantic bath; the picnic outdoors; the make-shift recycled-scrap card; etc.).

So take your pick and decide for yourself. It's not a bad mix, really, and some of these things I wouldn't mind supporting monetarily (who doesn't want to donate to an animal shelter? seriously!).

While you're there, be sure to check out the rest of the site. It's run by The Discovery Network, so it's as reliable a site as any.
