EARTH – It’s the only one we have.

When I saw this sandcastle, I thought WOW! A group took the time, willingness, and energy to do this. Look at the details. So many were standing there looking at it in awe.

This picture is a great reminder of how we all need to give a little time, willingness, energy to help our Earth. Really, it’s just a matter of RESPECT to our Earth and ourselves.

Here are 3 Quick Tips to help Mother Nature! Just 3 things can make a huge impact, and they’re simple and easy.

1. Pick up trash and dispose of trash properly – Not only are you helping the Earth, but you are helping the environments, birds, animals, and wildlife stay safe and clean.
2.  Be mindful of your water usage – Try to reduce your water usage at home. When brushing your teeth, turn the water off or get a water saving faucet kit adaptor. You will not only save $$ on your water bill but also conserve water usage. I first used a water saving facet in elementary school and love the idea!
3. Use reusable items! This includes bags for shopping and groceries, or water tumblers instead of water bottles. Here again you are helping the Earth, its environments, birds, animals, and wildlife.

We already know these can help but may need a reminder. Let’s all be mindful of what we can do on this Earth Day and day after day. It’s the only Earth we have so let’s do our part for ourselves and the world.

And always remember to Be Yourself Be Strong And Be Beautiful®
