Get Involved!
Earth Day is a time to appreciate nature and learn ways to protect our environment. All of us really can make a difference. Just take time to look at what you are doing and commit to get involved.
Here are some suggested activities that you can do to get involved today.
Start a recycling program where you work or just in your garage.
Begin a carpool program at your workplace or commute to work on a bicycle to improve your air quality.
Change out incandescent light bulbs for more energy efficient compact fluorescent lighting.
Look into creating a rain garden for your yard or community; it improves local water quality by reducing potentially harmful runoff pollution.
Leave only footprints when you visit our state's beaches and coastal areas; take all of your trash with you when you leave.
