Greensender.com is the perfect gift solution – and good for the earth.

Maplewood, NJ (PRWEB) November 14, 2007 — This holiday season, give the gift that keeps on giving back to the environment. Newly launched Greensender.com provides gifts that help people get started making simple green practices part of their everyday lives.

Perfect for nearly everyone on your holiday shopping list, each Greensender box contains a premium reusable water bottle, a reusable organic cotton grocery bag, an energy-efficient CFL light bulb and an organic cotton t-shirt. These environmentally-friendly items were selected based upon their ability to be easily integrated into people’s everyday lives as well as their high quality and style.

According to the Consumer Recycling Institute and EnergyStar, Americans use 100 billion plastic bags and 30 billion plastic water bottles every year. By eliminating plastic water bottle and plastic bag usage, over fourteen million barrels of oil would be saved annually.

And if every American home were to switch just two incandescent bulbs for energy-efficient CFL light bulbs, we would collectively prevent 180 billion pounds of greenhouse gas emissions from entering the atmosphere over the life of those bulbs. Additionally, each home would save about sixty or more dollars in electricity costs over the life of the bulbs.

“While I think most of us want to get involved and help address the environmental challenges we face, we’re overwhelmed by them and don’t know where to get started. Greensender is about getting started. It’s about taking the first step in fulfilling our personal environmental responsibilities,” said Mike Aaron, President of Greensender.

“Greensender boxes are a perfect gift for nearly every person and every occasion; especially this holiday season. They’re unique, useful and best of all, good for the earth.” said Aaron.

Greensender was founded in October of 2007. Founder and president, Mike Aaron, created the company to help promote more environmentally-friendly alternatives to the often wasteful practices that have become commonplace in our everyday lives. His professional background is in corporate communications, branding, marketing consulting and advertising.

Greensender boxes can be purchased online at www.greensender.com. Greensender also offers custom solutions for corporate and event gifting.
