A subscription to The Green Guide is certainly one of the more useful gifts out there. By doing research on products and practices, they take the hard work out of doing right - like Greenthinkers!

the best Christmas gift I ever got for my husband -the "thou shalt not drive cycling maniac"- was a section of bike path. I forget what the unit was -.1 mile, perhaps. But I figured out the budget, figures for the cost of the path came from the Dept. of Natural Resources.... and I bought as much as we could afford. He was thrilled -and every once in a while we have to go out to his little stretch of the path. He's very gracious about letting other people use it too ;)

That's a great story Andrea. What a great gift.
It reminds me of a gift I got (not to praise my own gift-giving or anything like that) for my parents many years ago - a section of the Trans Canada Trail, a recreation trail that will one day stretch the whole length of Canada (East to West). The gift helped the creation of the trail and made a piece of it our own (symbolically, at least). Win-win, if you ask me.
