What are you doing for Earth Day?
Every day is a good day to be green, but did you do anything special for Earth Day? It's not too late. Even if you just have a minute or two you can pick up a few pieces of litter and help clean up our environment. That is something simple any of us can do anywhere, even if we are traveling.
My friend Hannah and I met at the beach early this morning to pick up litter. We collected three bags full, recycled what we could, threw away the nasty trash, then sat on a bench savoring our treasures of the day. One great find was a toy for molding wet sand. Although this is a wonderful addition to our kids toys collection, what makes it really exciting is, it's a plastic purple cow and I've been reading Seth Godin. Just loved the synchronicity! An odd find was an eyelash curler. It's the first I've come across in several years of litter collection. Was VERY pleased to come across several Blow Pop candy wrappers. They make the cutest mermaids. Don't have any to show -- they sell quickly -- but I will make some soon so you can see.
