  • Ok, so Earth day is coming up! Less than a month. Well, the TV lied and said April 16th, but the internet says April 22nd. XD; So are you wondering what you could possibly do to honour this holiday? I will give you some answers!

    • Recycle something. Or go out of your way to recycle something you normally don't. There are drives that go on all the time. Like, right now in Kentucky, there is a drive to recycle your old shoes to help children/people in need. (Yes we wear shoes.) There are over a million pairs of shoes that end up in a landfill in my state alone. That's not even counting other states! Let's do something to stop that! The land fills are filling up fast. And if doing something to help mankind or your only mother earth isn't enough alone, with drives, there are usually benefits. Like discounts off at other stores, free gifts, etc.
    • If you are walking along, and see a bit of liter on the side of the road or something, pick it up! Throw it away, or even better, recycle it if you can. That will help tremendously, and only takes a couple of seconds out of your day.
    • Buy organic food, and unprocessed foods. This isn't only better for you as a person, but it saves our air. It isn't putting pesticides in the air we breathe, or on that food you may eat. And it saves on the gas and pollution that they use to put it on the crops on the large farms that grow food for the stores. Processed foods is not only bad for your body, but pollution from the factory isn't too great either.
    • If you can take public transportation or car pool, do it once or twice a week, and that cuts down on pollution greatly.
    • Take something old and make something new. You can make blankets with old t-shirts or jeans. You can make wallets, purses, skirts or anything out of old clothes, and plus, it's one of a kind!
    • Take a faster shower. Saves on water, and easy to do :D
    There are many more things you can do, but those few just a few easy things for even the most lazy of people to help better our one and only place to live that is slowly dying everyday! And still too much for you? Just spread the word about it. Tell others. We don't have to only do this on earth day, we can do this everyday!




    Side note: Off subject
    Vh1 is playing telephone. They cut the whole beginning of it. But at least they didn't ban it like MTV did for a bit or still did.
    Cut the prison guard letting her out
    Blurred out the actual product names
    cut out let's make a sammich and Beyonce pouring the poison
    Cut out the mass dying scene
    Made it much shorter, and it doesn't make nearly as much sense. But it showed :o
    Ok end of side note.
