Earth Day 2015!

Last week marked the 45th Anniversary of Earth Day! If you don't know what Earth Day is, it's a celebration which is all about the modern environmental movement that developed in 1970.
As stated by http://earthday.org/earthEarthDay.org, Earth Day in 1970 "capitalized on the emerging consciousness, channeling the energy of the anti-war protest movement and putting environmental concerns front and center." So, what are some things that you can do to celebrate Earth Day and help the planet? I have a couple ideas that may put you in "the Earth Day mood."

1. Walk, hike or even ride a bike! 
  • Make a fun day out of earth day by doing something physical.
2.  Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. 
  • Make the planet grenner by just doing simple things.
3. Plant a tree or plant. 

  • Trees produce oxygen and with all the homework we've been getting-- we need oxygen!
4.Swap your lightbulbs out. 
  • Floresent lightbulbs use less energy than regular lightbulbs.
5.Go outside and have a picnic! 
  • Getting outside for any reason is always a good idea. 

 Hope you have a fun and very green Earth Day!
