Earth Day for Lazy People

April 22nd, 2008 Wade

Earth day is a great idea. But humans are lazy. So, I’ve collected some easy ideas that will take you only a few minutes…

• Recycle something (and make a pledge to recycle ongoing)
• Walk or bike somewhere (and make a pledge to do that at least once a week)
• Tell someone else it’s Earth Day, and why that’s important
• Attend an Earth Day Event - find one here
• Buy some re-usable grocery bags - they are pretty cheap and you can forget the stupid plastic ones that collect under your sink and end up in a creek
• Plant a tree - get a free one here ($7.95 for shipping)
• Buy something organic (local organic is preferable) I bought some local organic carrots a few months back and OMG… it really was crazy how much flavor they had. I actually liked these carrots and I’m not a carrot guy… okay rambling now…
• Enjoy the Earth -go to a park, enjoy what we’ve been blessed with and hopefully it will inspire you to do more to keep it safe and clean.

*Outdoorzy is not responsible for readers who stare at that rotating Earth image and go insane…
