Green Scene Wishes You a Happy Earth Day
Green Scene member Kristen Nardozzi passes along her greetings to everyone for Earth Day:
Happy Earth Day Everyone!!!
Today is a great opportunity to show respect for our planet by going above and beyond in our efforts of green living. Here are some ideas of how you can have a happy and eco-friendly Earth Day:
- Bike or walk to school/work, if this is not possible look into public transportation or carpool with a friend or two
- Unplug your TV, computers, lights, etc. (energy is used even when items are not running if they are still plugged into an outlet!)
- Turn off your A/C and open your windows
- Take a shorter shower and reduce your hot water use
- Plant a tree
- Recycle!
- Use a reusable bag at the store
- Eat a meal of locally grown fruits and vegetables
There are so many simple ways that our actions today and everyday can begin making a difference. Use this holiday as a way to spread a message of sustainability and conservation to friends, family, and anyone you come in contact with today. And remember, even when today is over, you can continue to celebrate our Earth everyday!
