Unable to volunteer ? You can still do help out this Earth Day at your own home. Here are a few ways you can help Mother Earth.
Switching to Green Products is a great start, many companies now offer “Go Green Products” that are just as good if not better than traditional cleaning products. Environmentally safe products can be found in most department stores.
Trees are an important part of the eco system, keep life blooming by planting a seedling today.
Recycling. With landfills piling up so fast we all need to learn to buy, use and recycle products. Almost every city, town or village offers a Recycling Center. Check your local listings for the one nearest you.
Litter is another problem we run across ,whether you are at a park, shopping center or walking around the block at home. Take a few minutes of your time and put that gum wrapper, fast food cup or whatever it is in the nearest trash can. If everyone did this instead of walking past it, we could live in a much cleaner world.
