 Aveeno facebook offers

Commit: Take the pledge to get a houseplant to purify your home's air and receive 15 points. (I suggest an aloe vera plant :)
Live: Plant a tree and lower CO@ emmissions in your city and receive 25 points. (consider a fruit tree and in a few years, you will saving on your groceries too :)
