Happy Earth Day!

Reduce, Reuse & Recycle.....

We should really celebrate Earth Day every day. Here are some tips we ALL can do to help our planet:

• Recycle all materials that can be recycled



• Purchase organic foods, including meats, frozen, grains, etc.
  
  
• Buy locally grown or manufacutered goods...less gas used



• Turn off lights in rooms you are not using



• Shut down and turn off your computer or other equipment when not in use



• Lower heat to realistic temperatures-do we really need to have it set at 70 or higher?



• Minimize use of air conditioners and fans, try opening a window



• Try biking or walking or carpooling



• If you are purchasing a car, try a hybrid or one with great gas mileage



• Reuse grocery bags or purchase a tote that you can use and wash multiple times



• Try not to be so wasteful try, reusing items, leftovers, or donate instead of tossing (remember one persons trash is another persons treasure)

• Try using only what you need



• Instead of disposable water bottles, try using a reusable plastic or aluminum (try sigg water bottles-fantastic and watch for the plastic with the number 7-if your has a number 7 get rid of it)



• Wear clothing made from organic or recycled materials

We all can contribute to protecting our planet, saving our ecosystem, and ending global warming. It is harmful to the habitats of many living beings along with ours. It is up to us to make changes. Afterall, we only have one....
