We Call it Home

As you may know Earth Day is Friday and it is a great day to do a little something special for our planet. While you may choose to be a greedy energy hog or take extra long showers, Friday is the day you can give back. So, I will give you a few tips on how to be a little bit more "green":

  • Share a ride! Ride with a co-worker or use public transportation to get yourself to work.
  • Use less water (Shower together or opt for a sponge bath).
  • Pick up some trash.
  • Share some of nature's beauty with your family (take a hike).
  • Go for a sunset walk.
  • Recycle, Recycle, Recycle.
  • Use cloth shopping bags (avoid the plastic bags, even if you use them to clean-up after your dog).
  • Turn the electronics off (go outside and soak in the natural light).
  • Drink out of that Brita pitcher instead of those plastic bottles.

Hope this helps you with your Earth Day celebration, feel free to share how you will be celebrating!
