Buy local brewskis for the weekend. Organic beer is the greenest choice, but since it's not the easiest to find, do the next best thing and go local. Local breweries are a greener option because the brew has traveled the fewest miles. Fancy imports mean that gas-guzzling freighters lugged the beers here from their country of origin to your local store.

Today's the day to go the extra distance: Bike to work, make a generous donation to an environmental charity, plant a tree with the family, start a vegetarian diet or take on any other major green commitment you've been thinking of doing. Give it a try and join millions of others celebrating this wonderful planet. Start a blog and write about making a big green change so you can inspire others and they can start a dialogue, too.

You're green and didn't even know it: Downloading music and podcasts onto your iPod is the greenest way to go. Instead of wasteful CD packaging that ends up in landfills (not to mention driving to and from the mall), all of your digital files are instantly downloaded onto your device. No waste and instant gratification.
