عن أنس رضي الله عنه عن الرسول صلى الله عليه و سلم قال: إِنْ قَامَتْ السَّاعَةُ وَفي يَدِ أَحَدِكُمْ فَسِيلةٌ، فَإِنْ اسْتَطَاعَ أَنْ لاَ يَقُومَ حَتَّى يَغْرِسَهَا؛ فَلْيَغْرِسْها

Anas bin Mālik relates that the prophet (peace be upon him) said: "If the Hour arrives and in the hand of one of you is a Faseelah and if he could stay until it was planted; So let him plant it."

Green Your Searches

Every nook and cranny can be made more planet-friendly, that's just a fact. Here are a few websites that have taken that fact seriously and are helping all Internet users make the world a better place.

Blackle

Google is awesome, in my opinion. When I found out about Blackle, it became even cooler in my eyes. Blackle is the search engine that allows the monitor to save energy by having a black background instead of the usual white we see everywhere. Read more about how it saves energy, and go here to use it.

Ripple
It probably isn't what you need when you're researching for academic projects, but you should definitely click around when you have free time and are searching for random things. Get this, it's a non-profit website that gives all its revenues to charities. It's also very educational for those who want to know more about how people are changing the world.

Green Maven
This. Is. WOW.
A search engine of EVERYTHING green, sustainable, and awesome. The environmentally-friendly world is at your fingertips and definitely worth a look.
