Earth Day 2007

Sunday is Earth Day. I was disapointed to find a lack of celebration on the web. It only exemplifies the need to post and remind people how important our resources are. Without the Earth where would we be? It’s that simple.

For Earth Day Igby and I are making canvas grocery bags. The plastic bags they give us at the store, most of them even if reused in the home end up in a landfill somewhere.

There are a few other ideas like 18 Seconds, a campaign to switch out your light bulbs for more earth friendly bulbs. They are more expensive… but make a big differance in how much energy is used.

There are lots of other small things you can do like....

*choose products that are not over packaged
*if you have a clothes line.... use it
*turn off the water while you brush your teeth
*carpooling

If you would like to order an official Earth Day Flag they are available. My post might be a little late to order for this year.... but if you ask me everyday should be Earth Day.

Take a stand.... make a differance.... if everyone did something small it would all add up to something big!

Earth Day is Sunday.... What are YOU going to do to love your HOME?
