Making a difference every day.

Vanessa is a blogger and a journalist at a major Canadian newspaper called the National Post.
She has taken on the challenge to "Spend each day, for an entire calendar year, doing one thing that betters the environment." This is definately inspiration by leading or as Ghandi would say 'be the change you want to see in the world'. Vanessa keeps each change going on for the rest of the year, so its not just a one day aberration. Check out her blog at http://greenasathistle.com/

moku-coins: the currency of mokugift

Some of you have noticed that we launched moku-coins. moku-coins are mokugifts currency that can be used to purchase eTrees.

We created moku-coins to help you save money and time. So instead of going to Amazon checkout and using your credit card for each eTree purchase, you can just hit send and use moku-coins from your account. We are pricing eTrees at 1 moku-coin for 1 eTree. You can still use your credit card for each eTree purchase, but purchasing moku-coins also saves you money. Buying 10 moku-coins saves you enough to buy an extra eTree. You can save up to 25% when you buy moku-coins in large volumes.

Please tell us what you think.

Ellen Lee of the San Francisco Chronicle wrote a story about online gifts . It is a great article that includes many different view points. We were happy to be interviewed and mentioned in the article that appeared on the front page. They used an image of our rabbit. The rabbit is nameless, so feel free to suggest a name.

The story was picked up by The Columbus Dispatch also!

mokugift is launched!

We are proud to announce the launch of mokugift, an environmentally beneficial online gifting service.

You can use mokugift to celebrate the holiday season by sending eTrees. For every eTree purchased, mokugift will plant a tree in the real world. We have partnered with Sustainable Harvest International, a non-profit organization that plants trees in tropical deforested regions while empowering the local communities about education about sustainable agriculture.

When you receive an eTree it gets placed on your e-Island webapge on mokugift.com You can also embed the e-Island onto other sites that let you paste code.

Have fun and please tell us what you think.
