Earth day is fast approaching. I try to acknowledge it every year by using it as a reminder that there are simple things all of us can do to make the planet a better and safer place.
A lot of people tend to think –
I’m only one person.
This is only 1 bottle.
Only harsh chemicals work effectively.
All of those statements are wrong. Everything starts with one person. Every footprint you leave on our earth will affect you, the planet and the countless generations that come after you. We all have the power to leave a positive footprint or a harmful one.
If you’ve been around here a while, you know that while I don’t consider myself an extreme environmentalist I have made the commitment to change a few things in my home –
Use no chemical cleaning products.
Recycle all plastic bottles and aluminum cans (remembering to take out the recycling bin is the hard part).
Use filtered water when home and only use the bottle when on the go(I have yet to find a reusable water bottle that doesn’t make my water taste different so yes, we still buy bottled water).
Change all of our light bulbs to the energy efficient ones.
This year I decided to host an Earth Day Extravaganza. I’ll be highlighting a variety of eco-friendly products in April. There will be reviews and giveaways. I already have some great companies lined up.
If there are any earth-friendly companies out there that wish to have their products reviewed and given away, please contact me. I’d love to include you.
Bloggers Wanted
In addition to the reviews I will be doing, I welcome other bloggers to join the blog hop. I’ll post a list of participating bloggers and keep the list on the Earth Day Extravaganza page.
If any bloggers are interested in participating please contact me with the name of your blog, the product you will be reviewing/giving away and a link to your blog. Each blogger is responsible for securing at least one giveaway item for a product that is eco-friendly. Posts must be posted the week of April 17th but there can be more than one.
