As long as we live on this planet, we need to take care of it. Just like you take care of your house.
Here are some simple things you can do:
- Fix your leaking faucet and toilet – they are real water hogs
- Turn the water off while you brush your teeth
- Drink tap water or filter your drinking water instead of using water bottles
- Run a full load of clothes for the washing machine
- Pick up garbage when you go for a walk
- Save a turtle that was trying to cross a busy street
- Try using less lawn fertilizers
- Reduce your carbon footprint – and run errands and do your shopping all at once so you drive less often…and don’t idle!
- Use re-usable bags when grocery shopping
There are so many other things you can do to save the environment.
You CAN make a difference. Check out this article from the EPA on Earth Day Tips
