Earth Day is the day designated for creating awareness and appreciation of the earth’s environment and of the issues that threaten it. My first memory of Earth Day awareness was not until 10th grade in high school and THAT was many Earth Days ago! Our Student Council group planted a tree on the school grounds. Since then, I have heard so much on saving our environment, saving water, recycling, changing to energy efficient light bulbs, and global warming that it almost has become second nature. We tend not to pay too much attention to the noise about our Earth anymore.
We do the obvious things-recycle cans, push trash in its proper containers, and turn lights off when we leave a room. But we can do more! In celebration of Earth Day and Earth Week, we’re providing one tip each day that we can do to keep the awareness for our environment a foremost thought so our kid’s kids can enjoy our beautiful Earth!
