Last year, in conjunction with Canadian Living Magazine's green issue, we invited you to sign up for 30 days of tips on greener living. The feedback was phenomenal and we couldn't help but come back with something bigger and better for 2008.
Our inspiration was this: instead of just offering tips on greener living, let's go one step further and share our stories of how we're trying to live more environmentally friendly lives. So for the next 30 days, that's what you'll be hearing about: our attempts and our failures, our eco successes and our eco sins.
But even more than sharing our stories with our readers, we want to hear from you, too. Tell us: how are you changing your daily lives? What's easy and what's a challenge? We'll choose our favourite 30 stories and post them on this blog starting on Earth Day, April 22. And everyone who submits one of the selected stories will win one of our 30 fabulous daily prizes (check back soon to find out what they are). You can send your stories to greenchallenge@canadianliving.com; please make sure they're no more than 300 words.
And to top it all off, we have a grand prize on offer: an Energy Star-rated dishwasher. You can enter once per day – just make sure to visit the Green Living Blog to get the daily code word.
Today's code word: green.
