Save Your World Highlighted in Living Green Magazine



Check out the January 2010 edition of Living Green Magazine for the latest article about Save Your World's conservation mission.

How Soap Can Help Save the Rainforest

Save Your World, a company dedicated to preserving the earth's natural resources, offers environmentally friendly personal care products that give back, products whose proceeds save areas such as rainforest and marine sanctuaries worldwide.

Our premium quality formulas are made with only natural and organic ingredients - including Aloe Vera, a moisturizing and healing succulent, and Yerba Mate, a unique plant grown in South America that is rich in antioxidants and contains 24 different vitamins and minerals. These products are chemical-free, cruelty-free and biodegradable, which makes them earth and skin friendly. Lightly scented with pure natural essential oils, they awaken a sense of natural relaxation.

The most important component of Save Your World product line is that the proceeds from these products go to support the Save Your World Conservation Mission. Save Your World is helping to preserve 200,000 acres of rainforest in South America by leasing them back in order to preserve them in their pristine state. This innovated lease is the first of its kind worldwide.

Save Your World is also helping to protect the world's largest marine reserve, an area roughly the size of California, encompassing the Phoenix Islands in the South Pacific. This area, known as the PIPA (Phoenix Islands Protected Area), is being secured from the danger of overfishing, which threatens the delicate balance of marine life. These environmentally unique areas are two of the most pristine areas on earth of their type.

Simply by purchasing our products, consumers can do something good for the world every day. "1 Product = 1 Acre of Rainforest Saved for 1 Year" is on every label, on every product; this message shows the consumer the direct benefit of products from Save Your World.

Climate science is older and better established than you think

“Climategate” or “Swifthack” or whatever you call the hubbub about the stolen climate science emails seems to have faded from public discussion, as I expected it would. Every time a new one of these frenzies gets started, climate activists panic, climate skeptics crow that they’ve finally won, and then the whole thing fizzles. Wash, rinse, repeat.

Anyway, though, if you’re still interested, NRDC has put together a brief video responding to the fuss:




As the video says, the basics of climate science have been well-understood and accepted for almost a century now. Along those lines, check out this amazing video Andy Revkin unearthed. He intros it like so:


The basic idea, of course, goes back more than a century, but the real number crunching started in the 1950s, and even drew the attention of the filmmaker Frank Capra, who produced a series of television programs on science (in the post-Sputnik days when science was a high priority), that included “The Unchained Goddess,” a remarkable 1958 film on weather and climate. It contained a section on greenhouse-driven warming:




Save Your World
is a company dedicated to saving Earth's natural resources world wide through the support of Conservation Projects such as the 200,000 Acre Rainforest Conservation Concession in Guyuana. Save Your World's product pledge of "1 PRODUCT = 1 ACRE OF RAINFOREST SAVED FOR 1 YEAR" helps preserve areas from deforestation and maintain them in their pristine state. Saving Rainforest Acres helps regulate climate change and keep stores of carbon dioxide from being released into the atmosphere.

If you want to help save rain forest acres, please consider supporting our efforts at Save Your World. All profit from the Save Your Rainforest Wristband goes to save acres of rainforest in Guyana through the support of leasing a 200,000 acre rainforest located along the Essequibo River. Just $10 buys you 2 wristbands and 2 acres of rainforest for 1 year.
