Today is Earth Day a day to remember how fragile our planet is and how important it is to protect it. This year’s theme: Restore Our Earth. I often wonder how little-ole-me can do anything meaningful or significant enough to make a difference. Truth is, by myself, I really can’t. But as we band together in small ways our impact will surely multiply! Here are 10 things if we all committed to at home would have a tremendous impact on our planet: ... Select appliances with high energy-efficiency ratings. Repair leaky faucets (Five drips a minute equals 262 gallons a year!). Use reusable grocery bags. Consider a drip irrigation system. Clean refrigerator coils. Use cold water when washing clothes (HE washers and modern detergents make hot water optional.) Purchase wool dryer balls (these are amazing!). Unsubscribe from catalogs and junk mail lists. Set your printer to print two-sided. Bump the thermostat down. (68 degrees is the most energy-efficient temp in the winter; 78 in the summer.) Join me in celebrating Earth Day right at home in the smallest of ways! And as always, please reach out if I can help or serve YOU in any way. See more
