Let the countdown begin!
Good morning, LBW Crew!
Today is exactly 1 week from earth day, and we can hardly wait. Earth day is not only about spreading awareness about keeping our earth healthy and clean, but it is also a day to celebrate the amazing things that are on this planet. Here we usually focus on issues in the blue parts of earth, but Earth Day is to celebrate all that Mother Earth offers. Are you wondering how you can celebrate Earth Day? Here are a few tips from us:
Recycle. Recycle. Recycle. - Get out your recycling bins and try to sort through your garbage to see what materials can be recycled instead of contributing to landfill.
Invest in reusable goods. - Things such as reusable water bottles, reusable shopping bags, metal or glass straws, and more can help reduce the amount of plastic or other harmful trash that gets scattered through nature and the ocean.
Sign environmental petitions. - If you go online, it is super simple to electronically sign petitions on environmental issues that are right in your neighborhood! Signing petitions that call for banning plastic bags at grocery stores or plastic straws in cafés can make a huge difference.
Spread the word. - Tell your friends, family, neighbors, or anybody you know about Earth Day and healthy environmental habits! You can send them our website, or just have a conversation.
Go outside and just take a minute. - Take a minute to enjoy your surroundings! When was the last time you felt the sun or rain? Go outside and just relax. Appreciate earth!
And of course, remember that every day should be Earth Day! These healthy habits don’t have to end after April 22nd, so let’s keep celebrating all of the amazing things on our planet, and do what we can to keep Mother Earth clean!
XOXO,
Little Blue World
