Today is Earth Day, a day on which we take time to celebrate our great planet and consider ways that we can keep it clean and make sure that is remains a great place to live for generations to come.

You can make everyday Earth Day, by doing small thing to maintain our natureal resources and make the Earth a safer, cleaner home for humans and animals alike. Here area few tips:

-Turn off the water as you brush your teeth.
-As the bulbs in your home go out, replace them with compact fluorescent bulbs. These bulbs use less energy than regular light bulbs.
-Rather than leaving the car idling as you wait to pick someone up, turn off the enging and restart it when you are ready to leave.
-Turn your heat down when you go away on vacation. Just leave yourself a reminder to turn it up after you return.
When you write that reminder use the back of an envelope or some other piece of paper that has already been used, rather then using a fresh sheet of paper.
-Switch to rechargeable batteries.
-Take the time to recycle aluminum, paper and other products.
-Make your own compost.
