Today is your day Boomer! You know that Earth Day is coming up soon...on April 22, and Boomers, many of us have the time and money to do something positive. The United Nations suggests that climate change is not just the defining issue of our time, but we are also at a defining moment in history. Weather patterns are changing and will threaten food production, and sea levels are rising and could cause catastrophic flooding across the globe. Countries must take drastic actions, but so do individuals. Boomers, what can we do to pitch in and help save the Earth? Here are 10 things you can do every day to help reduce your carbon footprint.(1)Conserve water (2)Be car-conscious(3)Walk, Bike or Take Public Transit (4)Reduce, Reuse, Recycle (5)Give composting a try (6)Switch to LED's (7)Live Energy-wise (8)Eat Sustainable foods (9)Plant trees: according to howstuffworks.com, "Plants naturally absorb carbon from the air. One young tree can absorb CO2 at a rate of 13 pounds per tree. Every. Single. Year. And that's just an itty bitty baby tree. Once that tree reaches about 10 years old, it's at its most productive stage of carbon storage, and it can absorb 48 pounds!" (10)Give up plastics. Boomers, we already do a lot these things....but I know we all can improve. Check out the "howstuffworks" website for more info, and let's get ready for Earth Day, which is, by the way, every day! Cheers.
