With these Ten Steps in place, women are more likely to achieve their breastfeeding goals. That is why it is so important for every birthing center, hospital, clinic, and community to strive to increase the number of steps in place, even if they cannot achieve all ten steps immediately. Every step counts!
In honor of World Breast Feeding Week, I'm getting a Breast Feeding t-shirt from We Add Up. Like I need an excuse!
Because...
"No one can do everything. Everyone can do something."
I love this slogan! Check out all the different green actions that you can promote. From buying local to showering together (bet you never thought about that one!), there are so many to choose. And yes, breastfeeding is most definitely green and Eco-Cheap!
Hmmm. I am in need of a few t-shirts.
In what ways do you help promote breast feeding, and/or other green causes?

I am always trying to encourage mum's of new born babies to breastfeed. I explain to them how much I have seen the difference between my two children, one who was and one who wasn't breastfed :)
Personal experience speaks volumes and educating new moms (and more importantly, moms to be) is vital. Way to go, mama!
When I find that someone I know is pregnant I ask if they're breastfeeding and I tell them how much I loved it with my daughter and with my son now. I give a few examples of why but try not to be too pushy that I turn them off to it. It's hard though because I feel so strongly about it. And I want one of those shirts!
