• Did you know that hard-plastic bottles of water actually leach toxins and require 1.5 million barrels of oil to make each year. Instead try buying larger jugs of water and fill a thermos made of lined aluminum, stainless steel or glass.
• If every American recycled one-tenth of their newspapers, we'd save 25,000.000 trees a year.
• A single quart of motor oil disposed of improperly, can contaminate up to 2,000.000 gallons of fresh water.
• For every $10 spent buying things, 10% goes to packaging that gets thrown away.
• Plant a tree. http://www.arborday.org/
Great gift to give someone. Or start a seedling in a pot until it's at least a foot tall, then transplant them in the yard.
As trees grow they help stop global warming by removing carbon dioxide, store carbon and release oxygen. What a lovely way to help save the earth.
