Life 101 – Earth Day

Planet Earth shaped like a heart

5 THINGS YOU CAN DO FOR THE PLANET
1. Plant a garden. (Going vegetarian is the easiest way to reduce your carbon footprint, but just becoming a “locavore” and eating food grown within a 100 miles from your home is a start.)
2. Cut down on plastic. (Make the Plastic Pledge. Did you know 8% of the world’s annual oil production is used to create plastic?)
3. Watch Food Inc. (A must see! It will change the way you eat.)
4. Drive less. (Walk, bike, carpool, take public transportation where available.)
5. Figure out ways to make your home more energy efficient. (Hint: It’s not just the light bulbs!)
