What Can You Do For The Earth?

As Earth Day approaches, living green is more on peoples' minds than ever. Here are five changes you can make to your lifestyle to help heal the planet. What are you doing to be more environmentally conscious?

1) Recycle. One of the most beneficial and important things you can do for the environment is recycle. Recycling waste allows materials to be reused rather than thrown out -- and buying recycled material is promoting that healthy lifestyle. Make the right choice.

2) Buy a Water Bottle. Why waste money and plastic on something that comes out of a faucet for free? Having a water bottle is frugal, convenient, and good for the environment.

3) Bike to Work. As the warm weather is rolling in, why not be outside a little more? Not only are you helping the planet, you're helping your health. Burn some calories and save loads of gas by pushing those pedals instead of a car.

4) Turn Off the Lights. How many times do you leave the house without turning off all of the lights? By making sure the lights are off when you're not there, you'll save money on your electricity bill and power on the electrical grid.

5) Buy Organic. We're not saying that you have to eat 100% organic from now on, but introducing organic produce into your diet will make a difference. It is a certified sign of chemical-free food and a clean earth.

I just got a postcard from a talented artist Cassandra Tondro of Santa Monica, CA, who has developed a method for using non-toxic and Earth-friendly materials to create her artwork. She works with plants, Earth pigments and other natural processes on paper and canvas. If you want to view her environmentally friendly creations, you can see them on www.tondro.com

Thank you, Jodie! Most art materials are toxic, and I'm doing what I can to find alternatives.
