Earth Day!
April 22, 2010Today is April 22, 2010! Which means it is Earth Day! Today is a day to take action against destruction of our world and the beauty that lives in it.
Things you can do to help out this Earth Day:
- Plant a tree (it gives us oxygen to breath and takes in what we breath out, carbon dioxide)
- Make it your goal the rest of this year to use less plastic and paper cups. If you daily go to a coffee shop and get your cuppa, make sure you buy a cup or mug that you can reuse daily!
- Spring is in the air, so plant some veggies in your garden, keep that soil nice and healthy.
- Ride your bike instead of driving today, it's healthy and creates zero air pollution.
- Make it your goal to get recycling bins into your household, and do it soon! The more you recycle, the less hazardous material ends up in a landfill.
- If you live near an Eco friendly festival that is going on this weekend (such as Eco-Fest in Aspen, CO) , go check it out! There will be tons of products that are upcycled and stylish that you might want to invest in.
- Last but not least, buy a Suubi necklace on our online store! Our necklaces are made out of recycled paper, and are handmade. Healthy for the environment, and pretty looking to wear.
Enjoy spring and all of the growth going on around you! Happy Earth Day!
