Transportation

Believe it or not, but you can help the earth by just changing what you use to transport yourself. 

Use buses instead of your regular car, or use a train, or any other public transportation.

You can write a letter to your governor or senator to tell them to expand the public transportation systems.

You can use electric cars to help stop a little more pollution from gas cars.

You'll also save gas! Which you can use to power your stove if it's gas.

So try it out!

Hope this helped in your quest to helping the earth!

"Green Hour"

Ever feel like your child is just playing too much X-box, PS3, or any computer games? Well here's an idea. Have a GREEN HOUR!

Green Hour is...

1. A great way to save a little energy.
2. A wonderful way to spend that hour playing with friends instead of hurting your eyes by pretty much gluing them to the screen.
3. An amazing way to relax while your child plays outside instead of his gaming system that is so loud and hurtful to the ears.

So, TRY IT OUT!! It might just work for you!

Saving the Earth while doing everyday things

You can help while doing everyday things like if you are bringing a bagged lunch, use a reusable lunch bag. Other things you can do are...

1. You can bring reusable water bottles instead of using a plastic cup that you know that you will throw out later.
2. Try not to use plastic or paper plates, cups, or utensils. I know that when parties come you just don't want to wash anything. Just try not to use them in everyday life. During parties you can use it. (free country!)
3. Try to walk to school with your child on warm, sunny days instead of driving there. If you don't want to walk, you can always bike or skateboard or etc. If the school is far away, maybe you could arrange a car pool with your neighbors.
4. Make sure that all lights are closed when no one is occupying the room.
5. Make sure that the sinks are not dripping or leaking.

These are some thing YOU can do to help!
