The world's gearing up for Earth Day on April 22, 2009 and many companies & organizations are participating by giving away free products ! Now, using Earth Day to promote a brand/company is not necessarilly the best way to honor the planet, I thought you would want to know what is available (to reward you for your hard work).

It’s certainly positive that Earth Day and the ideas of conservation have become so widely accepted. But there are still so many common misconceptions surrounding conservation.
