Tuesday, April 22, is Earth Day, so you're sure to hear a lot about climate change, clean energy, and the like over the weekend. It's all pretty overwhelming, especially if you're trying to figure out how to change you and your family's lives to be a bit more Earth-conscious.

Well, the editors of Shine are busy women just like you, and we understand it's not easy to keep things "green" as we juggle all we do. But we also know that, if the strong-minded women of the world don't do something to save the planet, then we're all screwed!

So, over the last week, we've put up a few posts that we hope will make this whole green thing simpler to adopt into everyday living. Check them out, and make those little changes that make a big difference:

Also, our friends at Yahoo! Green have put together fantastic Earth Day guide to Freecycling, the fantastic new trend of giving stuff you don't want anymore to other folks who want it rather than putting it into a landfill. Now there's a green change that may even save you some money!

Now, ladies, go forth and be greener!
