EASY WAYS TO REDUCE - REUSE - RECYCLE!
Bird Feeder
Here are five easy ways to help celebrate Earth Day at your own home:

1. Build a birdhouse or bird feeder from scraps you may already have in your workshop or garage. You'll be encouraging the local bird population, which plays an important role in every ecosystem. Using objects that otherwise would have been thrown away is an excellent way to create a beautiful work of art that is uniquely your own.

2. Plant a tree. Trees help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, clean pollution, secure soil in place to prevent erosion, and provide homes for a lot of biodiversity. In fact, planting anything is a great way to make your little corner of the Earth a little greener. VISIT US ON EARTH DAY AND RECEIVE A FREE PLANT!
 
3. At least once a week, plan a menu that uses locally produced foods, is healthy, and has minimal impact on the environment. Favor vegetable and bean products, as these use less resources to grow than mass-farmed meat. If you still would like meat, look for locally produced, organic meat. Try and have organic food completely. Decorate the table with recycled decorations made by you and your friends.
 
4. Wash laundry in cold or warm water. If all the households in the U.S. switched from hot-hot cycle to warm-cold, we could save the energy comparable to 100,000 barrels of oil a day - even more if we used cold-cold (and most laundry detergents today are designed to work in cold-cold). And remember to only launder when you have a full load.
 
5. Batch errands. Feel like you spend your whole week trying to catch up with the errands? Take a few moments once a week to make a list of all the errands that need to get done, and see if you can batch them into one trip. Not only will you be saving gasoline, but you might find yourself with much better time-management skills.
