Earth Day – Are You Green?
Posted by DraginFli on April 16, 2009
Earth Day – celebrated April 22 every year. Did you know that many stores will take your old electronics and recylce them for you? Radio Shack will trade a gift card of the value of the working electronics you bring in. Best Buy will recycle up to 2 items per household per day.
Few Green Tips
1. Save energy to save money – Set thermostat a few degrees lower in the winter and a few degrees higher in the summer
2. Save water to save money – Take shorter showers to reduce water use
3. Less gas = more money – Walk or bike to work
4. Eat smart – Buy locally
5. Make your own cleaning supplies – saves money and is non-toxic
Do you do any of these 5 things mentioned? I have changed my light bulbs out to the energy efficient bulbs. I almost always wash in cold water. Always turning out lights behind the kids in rooms not being used. I recycle cans. I give the kids my paper copies I no longer need for them to draw on. And I pay my bills online.
