Earth Day is tomorrow April 22nd, and though the holiday doesn't grant a day off of work, school or the closing of government offices, it is a day to spend at least a little time thinking about the environment.

For those looking for an easy way to give back to the environment..and get a little something in return, you should check out a new CD just released by our friends at Green Owl Records.

In once simpler times, the summer beach vacation stood for all that was mindless and fun. A true getaway in the most fundamental sense--slather on some sunscreen, shut down the brain, pick up a trashy novel, and lounge with nary a care in the world. At the risk of reverberating buzzkill, it must be noted that these are "simpler times" no more.

You might not have known what it meant to be "greened" prior to February 25th. But if you saw Leonardo DiCaprio and Al Gore's comedic routine at this year’s Academy Awards, you probably got the idea.
