Save the Planet & your Children's Future...Think Green 4 Earth Day!


LB and Kai are so so very sad. They are sad about what their planet is enduring at this very moment. They are sad about what their future planet could look like someday! The ocean is being filled with trash...everyday each person creates 4 pounds of trash..that is a lot and it ends up in our ocean...killing fish and other sea animals. The worst part of all, is that this trash is so large, it has been mesured to be as large as the state of Texas. Here are ways to help that I think "as a busy mommy" I can do.
1. Use re-usable bags at the grocery store, playless has really cute ones for $1.99!
2. Plant your own garden!
3. Use vinegar, lemons and baking soda for cleaning!
4. Chose energy star appliances (if you can afford them)!
5. Check out Terracycle products (they are recycled cool things like purses)!
6. Weather strip your doors and windows, you will save money too!
7. Buy an LCD tv instead of a plasma.
8. Use a programable thermostate..I have one!
9. Eat less meat!
10.Grab a towel instead of paper napkin when the little monster spills something!

Happy Earth Day!
