Earth Day
Apr 22. 09
Earth Day is Wednesday, April 22, 2009.
Earth Week in the Bulkley Valley is April 20 to 25 and it is a great time to help many others create an overall awareness about our environment and changing our habits and to make a positive impact on climate change. Everyone can do their part just by rethinking their consumption habits:
- save water,
- turn off unnecessary lights,
- make the most of your programmable thermostat and lower the temperature when you can,
- don’t just turn off those electronics that are not in use, unplug them,
- replace the standard light bulbs in your home with energy-efficient ones,
- double side all of your printed and photocopied jobs,
- recycle your bottles, cans, cardboard, and plastic bags,
- carpool, ride a bike, or walk to work.
- PLANT A TREE!
