http://www.earthday.ca

We Are Wedges is celebrating along with all the other Etsy Bloggers!

So what's green with Wedges? So many things!

1) There is SLUGGO, he's a green sea wedge.

He naturally cleans our oceans waters by feeding on detritus!
Thats the dead and waste stuff found in our oceans!
You can adopt a sluggo here.

2) There is WALTER the Wedge!

He has a green hoodie!
To save the earth, he lowers his carbon footprint by riding his bike EVERYWHERE!!!
Even to work!!!
You can adopt Walter here.

3) Most of all we'll introduce RASCHERA the Wedge!

She's a Wedgetarian! What's a wedgetarian? They only eat wedgetables!

That means she's reducing her human footprint in wedgeland!
Being wedgetarian contributes to solving:
-World hunger
(it takes more energy to raise and produce animal meat than the meat itself provides)
-Deforestation
(forests and rain forests are being cut down to provide grazing land for animals)
-Soil erosion
(grazing animals that eat the grass strip the land and make it vulnerable to wind and soil erosion, thereby destroying prime agricultural land)
-Disease
(vegetarian diets reduce the risk of heart disease, atherosclerosis, diabetes, obesity, cancer...)
