Environmentalist Mom & Advocate Out to Save the Earth One Family at a Time with Gift Bags and the Help of Eco-Conscious Celebs
CHICAGO IL (RPRN) 04/03/09-“I Count for My Earth”, is Lynn Hasselberger’s mantra, the environmental advocate behind myEARTH360.com and icountformyEARTH.com, one feisty and passionate mom fighting for our earth, one family at a time through her advocacy programs, including her newest earth-friendly endeavor: Earth Day in Hollywood ’09 Gift Bags by Distinctive Assets. The gift bags are filled with products that help to reduce, reuse and/or recycle.
From the eco.practical to the eco.chic, many are made from recycled material. All help to care for the earth. The gift bags are perfect for celebrating Earth Day – April 22, 2009, all year long. Even the gift bags made from fibers extracted from the leaf sheath of the Abaca plant (a member of the banana plant family), are biodegradable and reusable… the gift that keeps on giving.
“It’s not just about the products in the bag, it’s about helping to spread the word about reducing our footprint on the earth… one step at a time.” Lynn Hasselberger
She is calling on eco-conscious celebrities to step up and be role models, and so far many have heard the call.
Celebrities receiving the gift bags include:
Leonardo DiCaprio, Melissa Etheridge, Sheryl Crow, Eva Longoria, Tobey Maguire, Drew Barrymore, Ellen DeGeneres, Kathy Griffin, Tyra Banks, Bette Midler, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Holly Robinson-Peete, Sting, Rosario Dawson, Tina Fey, Alicia Silverstone, Ricky Martin, Jeremy Piven, Heather Graham, Justin Timberlake, Bill Maher, Adrian Grenier, Jake Gyllenhaal, Pink, and Courteney Cox.
Lynn is also providing each celebrity with their very own donation code that they can share with their friends, family and fans. Anytime someone shops at myEARTH360.com and uses their code, 10% of the sale will be donated to the celeb’s favorite environmental charity.   (A committed environmentalist, DiCaprio has received praise from environmental groups)
