Feel Good about yourself by treating yourself to a meal at Amanda’s in Berkeley or other participating restaurants in the East Bay or search the Dine Out For Life Site for restaurants in your area.

2) Current.com has the coolest Green Site with a schedule for the day and earthday-related articles
3) Amy Hale’s Donation and Volunteer ideas to inspire you to get involved on Earth Day.
