Going green is such a trend these days. Everything from luxury brands, like Gucci, all the way down to economy brands. But honestly, who is going to be against saving our planet? It’s the only one we’ve got so we better take care of it. Sunday, April 22nd is Earth Day 2012.
On the Earth Day website, they recommend ways to help. Extremely simple things that anyone is capable of doing.
Things like:
- Buying local produce
- Eating less meat
- Unsubscribing from junk mail
- Limiting your use of disposable plastic
- Planting trees
- Start composting
- Reduce your carbon footprint
Check out their website, here, for more suggestions on things you can do and ways you can help!
What started more than 40 years ago, triggered by an oil spill in Santa Barbara, has truly changed our world. By no means are we there yet but the idea is out there and now more than ever people are making efforts to attain this worthy goal. So, let’s keep buying green products, keep recycling, keep advocating and raising awareness even by example. My parents always told me to leave things nicer than the way I found them, why should Earth be any different?
