Saving animals is addictive. We rarely are privy to the full impact we have on the world. With wildlife rescue and rehabilitation, it’s right there in front of you — until you’re hopefully able to release back to the wild. To hold an animal that would be dead if not for your efforts is rewarding to the extreme and exhausting as well.

Do you have a favorite green product, method, nature escape or other green tip you'd like to share? Or do you have a green resolution for 2020? Are you putting in a monarch garden, buying an electric car or learning how to use an air monitor this year? Tell us about it! We will publish your submissions in an upcoming article.
