we add up.
We mentioned them when they first launched their company, but we saw our green month as a perfect platform to remind you of the all brilliant We Add Up.
It's a global warming awareness project, standing as a COUNT of people committed to reducing their carbon footprint. It encourages people to make small {or even large} changes to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. WE ADD UP is an organic t-shirt campaign where each tee is custom printed with a number. Your number represents your position in the sequential global count!
We Add Up believes that "No one can do everything. Everyone can do something. And, WE ADD UP." In addition to the choose your action adult shirts, the "act now" kids tee allows the children to be counted in and spread the message. They understand that "leaving the problems created by current and past generations will cause irreparable damage to their ability to thrive. We can protect our earth and our children's futures..."
All tees are 100% certified organic cotton, grown, woven, and sewn in the USA using sweatshop-free labor. And the company does give back a portion of their proceeds to environmental groups that are working towards the same cause.

These are such a great idea to raise awareness. I love the "shower together" tee. It makes me smile!
My favorite is definitely the 'Buy Local' tee. My husband and I have always made it a priority to shop at farmer's markets and support local restaurants and stores. Sometimes we end up paying a little more, but it's worth it to us to support the efforts of those in our community. -Kristin R.
I like the "Organic" tee - my husband and I eat mostly organic and feed our daughter homemade organic veggies and fruit.
I love the idea behind this company. Sometimes it feels like there's so much to do that I don't make a difference, no matter how green I turn my family :) I like the "eat less meat" and "buy local", both healthy choices that also make a difference.
I like the ACT NOW tee. Hopefully people will read it and do it.

I like the Buy Local tee too - very cool! It makes me wish spring was here a little faster...
I like the recycle tee. I don't understand how more people won't recycle since it is so easy to do. Thanks for sharing these tees with your readers.
I LOVE them all - fantastic. But I think I have to go with the Organic one!
i like the all icons shirt, and i like the shower together shirt. my husband is a chemist and has been trying to raise awarness on global warming. this tee would make hima proud daddy, if my daughter wore it.

I'm torn between the organic and drink tap tees. Thanks!! Maureen (jnomaxx at hotmail dot com)
I love these tee's. Awareness and being proud of your green steps is awesome! My favorite is the 'buy local'. It's the next step in our household's green movement.
Go green team!

This is really hard choice, I really like them all. I love the message that they are sending out. I guess my favorite is the recycle one.
Hi, A super site. These kind of wonderful ideas are really starting to multiply. That is a good thing!
For a child, I really like the
"Bike" t-shirt. That way, they can know they are doing their part when they ride their bicycles. Please enter me in your drawing. Thanks,Cindi

I really like the "buy local" and "eat less meat" tees!

I like the buy local tee shirt I like to support my local community
I like the all icons, switch or unplug. What a creative way to make a statement without saying a word.
oh wow that t is realy cool as well as the rest of them i be more then happy to put this kind of t on my child
Some great choices. I like lights off and shower together, but my favorite is the Buy Local. Thanks!
Shower Together-is the best!

The shower together one is really cute and makes me giggle, but my most favorite is the bicycle one! Great for a cyclist like me! Would love to wear this to the upcoming Twilight Criterium bicycle event -- the other cyclists would be jealous!
Julianna
I love this! We recently began the "Lights off" initiative in our house so that T is definitely my fav!
Shower toegther sounds fun :P
Drink Tap is my favorite since we have recently installed a filter so we no longer need to buy bottles!
My husband will soon be getting a PhD in Mechanical Engineering. There a good chance he'll be working in the field of renewable energy. I'd love to win the Wind tee for our daughter.
I love the Shower Together shirt... awesome! I also like the option for all emblems on one shirt. Great statements, hopefully we can inspire others to do a little something because we truly do Add Up.
Thanks!
Marissa :)

This is so cool. I love the theme "No one can do everything. Everyone can do something." There are so many little things we can do to make a difference - I think that's why the "all icons" tee is my favorite. I would love to win and spread a message my family believes in. - Shauntel
I like the "Wind" tee and the "Buy Local" tee.
These are great! I laugh with joy at the "Shower Together" tee but I think I'd wear "Drink Tap" more often because it would have a more serious impact on folks on the street.
I like the Act Now shirt. Thanks for the chance.
we all should shower together a bit more. That tee makes my husband happy. We haul our recycling to the local collection area and use canvas bags when we shop (sometimes). burnnnfla at hotmail dot com.
I like the buy local one. It would be great to wear to the farmer's market! Thanks for entering me.
I've never been to this site before. But I really LOVE this shirt! Cute!!
I like the organic tee or the bike tee. Great idea.

An extremely genuine idea to build awareness... so many wonderful items to choose from... hard to pick just one...

The shower together is my favorite. Though the bike teeis something I would like my family to committ to.
I love the "buy local" T, as we have been making a concerted effort by joining a local CSA and paying attention to the products we buy, although they are all great. What a great way to start another discussion with the kids about what we can do and to remind ourselves of our commitment!
i like the eat less meat tee. as a family of vegetarians and veggies jrs, we appreciate it.
I like the "Shower Together" T.

I like drink tap, as my hubby and I do that all the time.

i like the bike tee
The "organic" tee is my favorite!
Holly
I love the lights off shirt as I am always being reminded of this one as I am notorious for leaving lights on as I walk through the house (yes I do go back and turn them off)
:)
I added you on prizeatron too!

I really love the All Icons in Green, as a goal, why not all?
These shirts are great. I love the shower together shirt the most. Thanks for the chance!
My favorite is the Shower Together. It's funny and I feel inspired.
i like the buy local .
I think I like the Lights Off one the best. People always laugh at me because I use so little light in the house at night but I don't need it. I can see well enough to get around and do anything I need to. It's a simple thing to save energy that way.
I love the "Organic" tee! What a great site!
"unplug".
My daughter looks for the recycle symbol on everything, so "recycle" is my favorite!
I like the Buy Local tee!!! Support your local farms and small businesses!
what a great reminder to us all of the little things we can do. My favorite has to be the tap water tee.
they are all such good and simple ideas. i like the bike one best, but i also like the all icons so i can remember all the little things i can do to add up.
My husband is all about 'lights off'
I really like the shower tee, but would be more likely to buy the switch tee. I like them all - and the We add up is even better .
