Happy Earth Day!!

A special blog entry for one of my favourite days! EARTH DAY. This is the day we take extra special time to clean up our earth. But then again we should take care of our earth each and everyday. It has also come to my attention that I'm turning into a hippy. But not like the ones that get high and don't shower, but the earth saving, organic kind. For example; I have this shirt that says : More trees please. Which I have worn today on account of Earth day.
I'm going so far that I now walk almost everywhere, and today I'm going to buy organic make-up.
And now some tips on how to save our earth.
  • Use a re-usable water bottle.
  • Buy organic; food, clothes etc. If organic is just too much of a hassle and cost then I recommend buying food that is locally grown.
  • Carpool, if you must use the car. Aswell as walk or bike. Not only do you save money on gas and save the earth but you get exercise.
  • Use recycling bins!!!
  • Take shorter showers; two or three songs on the radio will do or take what I call sailor showers. When lathering hair or body turn off the water, then turn it back on when rinsing. Same thing with brushing your teeth.
  • PLEASE,PLEASE,PLEASE!!!! when your not using it, TURN IT OFF. That includes, lights, computer, radio, even the computer screen!!
