"Global Green School Makeover Competition Presented by: Pureology"

   Today I received an email from an interactive website @Influenster.com regarding the opportunity
to qualify for what is called a VoxBox containing $58 worth of @Pureology haircare products in which you can learn about from their website at http://www.pureology.com. In order to qualify you have to complete mandatory tasks. As one of my tasks I am to blog about a competition being held by a company @ Global Green USA.
    Being that I like to conserve I decided to complete the mandatory task. From Jan. 1st to March 31, 2013 Global Green USA will be having a competition that is presented by Pureology. For this contest you nominate a school for a Green School Makeover which consists of winning a $75,000 Green Makeover along with Global Green USA's technical assistance in seeing the winning plans through. I chose to nominate my local high school. I believe that it would benefit greatly. As of now they do not have an active recycling program nor do they participate in utilizing non-toxic cleaners such as Melaleuca, Biokleen, or Earth Friendly. They have very limited funding for school programs or activities. I believe that by also installing solar panels outside the school they could cut costs on energy therefore creating a surplus of money for other low budgeted areas of interest. In return they could become a leader amongst other schools in trying to conserve and sustain energy and precious resources. We only have one earth so we must learn to conserve and try to find alternate ideas for our lifestyles.  Our precious resources are dwindling fast.
     If you would like to nominate your school for a Green Makeover you can do so by visiting Global Green USA's website at http://www.globalgreen.org/greenschoolmakeover. Simply fill out the form including 3 areas of concern, your ideas for improvement, and attach 3-5 photos of your school showing areas that need improvement. In the meantime, try to conserve each day whether it's by switching to non-toxic cleaners or turning off excess lights. If you plant a seed it will grow with nurturing and care:)
