Top tips for an even more Eco-Friendly Valentines Day

Love not only the people in your life, but also Mother Earth because celebrating Valentine's Day can use a huge amount of the earth's resources from trees that are being cut down for cards, carbon emissions for transportation to pesticide laden roses.

For a more eco-friendly Valentines Day we have also come up with a range of ideas for a Valentine's Day that is all about giving love to the earth as well as each other.

• Make your own card or support a local artist making cards from recycled materials.
• Give your loved one a locally-grown plant! Bouquets in florists' windows have usually been grown on the other side of the world, have been transported thousands of miles and are covered in pesticides. Choose a locally-grown bouquet or plant instead.
• Celebrate with organic wine or champagne. And if you don't drink alcohol, you will be able to find alcohol-free organic wine at the same link.
• For indulgence with a conscience give organic or fair trade chocolates to your loved one.
• If you are splashing out on jewelery how about something fair trade, recycled or vintage?
• Give organic, or hemp underwear for your lover or sexy silk or bamboo lingerie instead of pesticide-sprayed cotton or non biodegradable polyester.
• Save energy and dine by romantic candlelight. It's more romantic and you'll save energy too! Use natural, beeswax or vegetable based candles that are biodegradable and smoke-free.
• Make a meal at home - source local, organic, seasonal produce and add the ingredient of love to a meal especially created for the man or woman of your dreams.
