Entry bubble Earth Day…Is Every Day

Earth Day was last week—remember? You know Earth Day is more than just a day to feel guilty and obligated to plant a tree, don’t you? The first Earth Day was organized to make people think about ecology, encourage respect for life on earth, and to heighten awareness of soil, air and water pollution.

Earth Day is a reminder that environmental responsibility is every one's responsibility, and the choices you make every day can protect or pollute the environment. Start at home by making sure that your home is as energy-efficient as it can be. Not only will it save energy, but it’s going to save you money, and I think we can all agree that we’d like to pay less to heat and cool our homes.

The Environmental Protection Agency has lots of ideas for reducing air pollution and conserving energy, using water wisely, and making environmentally friendly choices.

I am saving to convert to solar [hot water, electric]. It costs a bit but it will pay for it self and frees me from the utility company’s grips.

Earth Day was invented to bring awareness to the global COOLING crisis. Now 30 years later the earth is apparently WARMING and has been doing so very decades. Whatever. Case in point: it's all sensationalism.
