In the Pacific Ocean there is a patch of plastics know as the Eastern Garbage Patch the size of Texas! This patch is a huge feeding ground for many marine animals. ";

Shoppers worldwide are using 500 billion to 1 trillion plastic bags per year. This translates to about a million bags every minute across the globe. Plastic bags take 20 to 1000 years to break down, are made from petroleum, a nonrenewable resource, and they are very harmful to marine animals that ingest them.";

While some alternatives promote themselves as eco-friendly, such as 'bio-degradable Styrofoam', even these products are not necessarily good for the ocean. Buy paper products instead of plastic if you must buy 'disposables.' They break down better in the environment and don't deplete the ozone layer as much. ";

According to a U.S. Department of Energy study, if everyone replaced their conventional holiday light strings with Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs), at least two billion kilowatt-hours of electricity could be saved in a month. Also, the LEDs release little heat and they last about 200,000 hours. In the unlikely event that one does burn out, the rest of the lights keep on glowing. ";
