Earth Day has been promoted heavily this year, locally and nationally, which is fantastic! According to www.idealbite.com, (which is a great resource for little tips to be more earth-friendly) “Earth Day is the third-most activity-inspiring holiday in schools, after Christmas and Halloween.” Sign up for Ideal Bites daily tips or just browse the tip library to see what you can do to make a difference.
What can you implement into your life? Recycling, gardening, composting, reusing items instead of tossing them, using eco-friendly products, buying local and organic food, planting trees, volunteering for clean-up projects, turning off water while brushing your teeth and taking quicker showers, using grocery totes, using CFL’s in your house, reduce the amount of driving/idling that you do.
If you’re interested in composting, check out this composter from amazon (free shipping). I bought this one for my mom, and my friends bought one off of my recommendation and they really like it (I don’t have a yard). As with any composting, it takes a little getting used to what/when to add. This site is a great resource for all things composting. You may find that you have little need for trash pickup if you recycle and compost!
Check out my Amazon Earth Day sale link on the right (or click here)to buy eco-friendly items at a discounted rate!
Happy Earth Day!
