Wonder how spending your money can impact the world? Diane MacEachern, in her book and website, explain how women, who often hold control of their family's spending, can use this power to purchase friendly products to the environment that positively impact the world.
"Women can use that power in a way that can't be ignored," said MacEachern, who wrote a book, Big Green Purse and launched an accompanying Website to help women think about the way they spend money and the impact their spending has on the environment.

Very cool! And with so many industries going green (the apparel, automotive, household appliance) there are no more excuses for us to not do our part. What Diane is saying is true, there is a subconcious understanding that if we don't go 'all the way' in being enviromentally conscious then we shouldn't bother at all-this philosophy is completely flawed and untrue. If we all just reduced our carbon footprint then the world would already be a more beautiful and balanced place.
