Faith Hill And Tim McGraw Go Green

The Green Family Excerpted from The Green Book Our girls are very involved in recycling. Maggie, our eight-yearold, even wrote on the trash bin: “Please recycle here, thank you.” It all started when Zeny, a friend of ours, visited from San Francisco. She absolutely got us into shape on recycling. She was constantly reminding us that there was no other option. She''d tear apart boxes and even separate our garbage. When you get exposed to that level of teaching, it''s something you never forget. And trust me, if anyone forgets, one of the girls is there to remind: Recycle! They''re like minipolice. They separate their own glass bottles and cans. They even wash out their milk bottles and put things away. It''s really amazing. If there is a carton on the counter, it doesn''t stay there; it immediately gets put into the recycle bin. Recycling is also a great way to keep things clean! You don''t have to change the way you live to recycle. It really isn''t all that big of a commitment. It''s more about just being conscious of your waste. When you can see the difference recycling makes in your house, you can begin to imagine how big an impact it can have on the world. And it all goes back to that simple little instruction written across our trash bin. . . . -Faith and Tim Sheryl Crow, Tim McGraw and Faith Hill at the Stop Global Warming College Tour Excerpted from The Green Book www.ReadTheGreenBook.com by Elizabeth Rogers and Thomas Kostigen Available at Barnes and Nobles Photos Wireimage
