Earth Hour-Lights Out March 28th
Started by WWF and partners as a symbolic lights-out event in Sydney in 2007, Earth Hour is now one of the world's largest grassroots movements for the environment.

This Spring until October, Life is Good is embarking on a campaign called #SOMETHINGGOOD. The founders, inspired by their mother's daily question of "tell me something good" around the dinner table when they were young, want to encourage us to do something good for ourselves, for others and for the greater good.
Simply Christmas
Christmas is a holiday that is notorious for being stressful. We put pressure on ourselves to make everything "perfect."
