Welcome to Green Products and Ideas
This lens is about ways to support the future of the earth and to help keep it green! I will share products, ideas, poetry, and other related information because I believe we need to be pro-active and do all that we can as individuals to support a healthy environment. To do all we can to make our earth the best place it can be! There are lots of different products on the market now that do not harm the environment and are not loaded with harmful chemicals. I have designed some green items to promote awareness! A good book to open your mind to the seriousness of our situation is "Hot, Flat, and Crowded" by Thomas Freidman! A great read!

Poems by S. Kuhn
These poems I wrote when I was in my teens, that is a number of years ago! Thank goodness Poetry never gets too old to matter! I hope you enjoy these!
Written by Shelley J. Kuhn
The Sun
The sun is shining all around me
See the beauty that it brings
It adds a sparkle to the water
It makes the birds want to sing
See the fragrant flowers blooming
The trees are standing tall and green
The grass is growing oh so lovely
The sun gives life to everything
The next poem is called:
Trees
Lush and green
tall and lean
short and stout
reaching out
stretching high
towards the sky
branches blowing
trunks are growing
leaves are changing
life-spans ranging
A great quote by - Thomas Jefferson
"Determine never to be idle. No person will have occasion to complain of the want of time, who never loses any. It is wonderful how much may be done,if we are always doing."
