Ever since I was a little girl; I had tremendous love for reading and books. It wasn’t unusual for me to go to the library with my mother and carry out enough books to tower over my head. You can say that I have always been bit of a book worm. It has always been my dream to have my own library in my home one day. However; books can be draining to the forestry and depletes our natural way to reducing Carbon dioxide (We would call that trees). 

I would like to encourage you to visit your local library and check out books instead of purchasing books. If there’s a book that you must have; by all means; get it, but so many books I have gets read once and then it sits in my bookshelf forever. Also try to recycle your books by joining book sharing sites. You can post your old books and let someone borrow it or have it. And if there’s books you just don’t want. Why not donate it to the library?I went to the public library and found so many of books that I wanted to read but couldn’t afford to get due to current budget constraints. The Scranton public library had the most recent bestsellers such as Harry Potter and had an enormous collection of DVD’s and Cd’s. No more blockbuster for us… and best of all… it’s free! Just don’t forget to return things on time otherwise you could end up paying a hefty fine, but with the internet, you can recheck out a material with a click of a button. Even find and reserve books online so you can just pick it up if you are in a rush. I think you will be surprised at what you would find at the library now days.

On a side note, Beth of Easy Eco Living has invited me to do a meme; what Eco-friendly thing did you do this holiday? Erm.. I guess the only Eco-friendly thing I did was buy a real Christmas tree and didn’t get anyone a present. :)
