If you miss having your Christmas tree around—or just want to do something good for the environment this month—you can get up to 10 new trees on the cheap, thanks to the Arbor Day Foundation. For the month of January, as part of the foundation's Trees for America program, when you join with a $10 membership contribution, you'll receive 10 assorted flowering trees, 10 redbuds, 10 Arizona cypresses, 10 bald cypresses, 10 river birches or 5 crape myrtles. The trees will be shipped starting in February. Or you can choose to have 10 trees planted in U.S. forests in your honor. For more information, visit www.arborday.org/january.
After the failure of California's Proposition 37, a referendum that would have required the labeling genetically engineered foods, Just Label It provides national support to the same cause.
