About Me:

Every book was once a tree. Now you can plant a tree for every book you read with Eco-Libris.
About 20 million trees are being cut down EVERY YEAR to produce the books sold in the US alone.
Eco-Libris is an organization dedicated to doing something about it by empowering people to plant a tree for every book they read in an easy and affordable way.


Balance Out 10 Books by Planting 10 Trees
It costs only 10 dollars and you will receive 10 Eco-Libris stickers, made from recycled paper, in the mail.


Who I'd like to meet:

People who care about the environment, reversing global warming and keeping the Earth green and sustainable.
Eco-friendly Publishers, Authors, Bookstore owners that want to do something about the impact paper making has on the environment.
Anyone who is now becoming curious about it all :)
Treehuggers, Business People, Hippy Caravans and Corporate America -- unite... because It's Worth It.
