> FREE SUBSCRIPTION TO GREEN SEAL'S "CHOOSE GREEN REPORTS"
>
> Thanks to a grant from EPA, Green Seal is offering a free subscription to
> its "Choose Green Reports". Each "Choose Green Report" discusses the
> environmental impacts of categories like paints, cleaners, carpets, office
> supplies, and luminaries; gives environmental criteria with rationales for
> them; surveys manufacturers; and, based on the manufacturers' responses,
> recommends products that meet the criteria. The Reports include contact
> information for manufacturers. They are the country's only source of
> life-cycle recommendations of environmentally responsible manufactured
> products. They make it easier to purchase environmentally preferable
> products, and if it's easier, it's more apt to happen.

> You can learn more about Green Seal and its programs at
> http://www.greenseal.org and sign up at http://www.greenseal.org/cgrs for
> these objective, peer reviewed recommendations of environmentally
> responsible products. Signing up incurs no obligation and provides
> electronic notification when a Report is placed on the subscription
> website.
