6 Ways To Celebrate Earth Day

List Of Ways You Can Go Green:

  1. Turn Off The Lights — The electricity used for your lights is one of the biggest carbon emissions in your home. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, U.S. electrical energy emissions accounted for 31% of all CO2 emissions in 2022. Help cut back on the emissions coming from your home by turning off the lights during the day and letting the natural light brighten your living space! If you’re feeling really bold — you can use candles at night instead of your lights.
  2. Plant A Tree — Trees are essential to our lives because they provide us with oxygen — or O2 — that help us breathe. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, it is proposed that one large tree can supply up to a days worth of oxygen for up to four people. Why not help supply you and your family by planting a new tree on your property!
  3. No Single-Use Plastics — Single-use plastics are not only bad for you, but they’re terrible for the environment! Plastics in the environment never fully decompose. Instead, they break down into smaller and smaller pieces called micro-plastics, that remain in the environment forever! Eventually, these plastics make it into our food chain as they are ingested by animals that we consume. Yikes! Help stop our consumption of micro-plastics by not using single-use plastics. But if you do — please remember to recycle properly!
  4. Use Reusable Bags — Next time you go shopping at the grocery store of the mall, skip out on the plastic or paper bags they use store your items. Instead, opt to provide your own reusable bags to carry your items. This will cut down on using single-use plastic bags, as well as allow your to carry your items in a more sturdy and secure method.
  5. Eat Plant-Based Meals —  According to DW, animal-based products produce more carbon emissions than plant-based, with meat consumption alone linked to 1.1 tons of global carbon emissions on average. Help cut back on your carbon foot print on by choosing to eat a plant-based meal. Don’t know any plant-based meals recipes? Not a problem! Here is a list of 41 Easy Vegan Recipes to make in your own home.
  6. Bike To Get Around — Ditch your car for a change and use your bicycle to mosey on around town! A lot of town and even cities have invest time and resources into developing bike and pedestrian infrastructure to allow you to safely use your bicycle to get where you need to go! Not only will you be helping to cut down on carbon emissions you’ll also be getting a killer workout!
