Earth Day

35 years we've been celebrating earth day?  I never remember this stuff, so thank god Google and Yahoo keep me up to date on what's happening.  Yahoo even has a list of things we can do to help save our earth.  Be sure to check out the Earth Day photos, they're beeyootiful.

I feel a little guilty that I don't do more toward saving our planet.  I do recycle everything I possibly can.  Food, coffee grounds and tea leaves go into the garden or compost.  Our area finally has recycled materials being picked up by the city, which makes it much easier to recycle plastic, paper and glass.  I used to be big into crafting with recycled materials, but I don't do that much anymore now that the nieces have grown up.  And I don't leave the house if I can possibly help it, so I'm not contributing much to the gas / pollution issue.  So I guess I'm doing my little 2 bits.  But I leave the parade marching and speech making and crusading and soapboxing to others who have more energy.
