It’s Earth Day today – April 22nd – and Lopico is showing its support with the redesigned homepage. But more importantly, Lopico supports local businesses – in fact, that’s the whole point of the site. What you may not know is that when you support local businesses you may be helping the environment. Some studies suggest that by supporting local businesses you actually reduce your carbon footprint. So today each time you vote on Lopico don’t just think, “I’m supporting this business,” think “I’m saving the planet!”

More on Carbon Footprint and ways to reduce yours.
