I hope this site makes an impact on you. I am tired of all of the ozone pollution fog and smog we see in our everyday lives. Here are some general everyday tips that will help you "Go Green"
Things you can do throughout the day to help the environment and conserve it.
- Make sure you keep the water turned off when you brush your teeth. Imagine how many gallons of water could be saved if we all just turned the water off when brushing our teeth.
- Only turn on the lights that you need to turn on.
- Take a shorter shower, instead of a 15 minute shower try to shorten the length of your showers to 5-8 minutes.
- Make your trips around town useful.
- Turn off your computer if possible when not using it. Computers consume lots of energy.
- Consider using energy efficient bulbs in your homes.
- Investigate into getting a lawn mover which is powered in other ways besides gasoline.
- When going to the store take your own reusable bags. If you are going to use the store bags make sure you are informed of the recycling program that the store has.
Another great initiative towards conserving energy is called "Earth Hour" more information about earth hour can be found at http://earthhour.org
Remember everybody has an impact on the environment ,make it last. To help become aware of how special nature is make sure you check out the poems in "Poem List"
