Today is Earth Day so we can't help but be reminded of how dynamic - yet fragile the earth is. We live in the womb of a woman who nurtures us with an abundance of food, water, land, and breathable air. We must do our part to continue to make this beautiful planet sustainable for generations to come. Here are some simple and effective ways you can do your part:
1. Buy organic - yes it costs a little more but show the government that we will not tolerate out food being chemically modified and robbed of their nutrients.
2. Recycle - you can just about recycle every good you purchase nowadays like shoes, yogurt cups, paper, appliances, furniture and more!
3. Plant something! - go out in your yard or community and plant a vegetable or a flower garden. You can even plant a tree! Beautify the landscape around you and oxygenate the air at the same time.
4. Support Green Businesses -As your priorities change and you decide to help sustain the earth, you will discover that you will be more than happy to spend your money with companies who share your vision. You can also go to http://www.organicconsumers.org/btc/BuyingGuide.cfm and do a search for green savvy businesses near you. You may want to do a background check to make sure they aren't using the green stamp as a gimmick.
Namaste
