National Earth Day: April 22nd, 2019.
Here are a few simple Eco-friendly tips to incorporate in to your every day life at home!

-Use less water-

It seems challenging, but it’s actually one of the easiest! Try limiting the length of your showers & using a more efficient (Eco-friendly) shower-head. Low flow is the way to go! Also, try washing your dishes by hand more often than running the dishwasher. For the days you need the dishwasher, make sure it's full to get the most out of your load.


-Donate instead of toss-

Instead of filling up landfills, try reusing or donating items! From family members, friends, & multiple donations bins in store parking lots, someone will get the chance to use them! Don't shy away from thrift stores either!

 

-Buy House plants-

Not only are they aesthetically pleasing, they are great for purifying the air, reduce stress levels & boost your mood!

 

-Swap your household cleaners-


With so many amazing green/natural cleaning product options, how can you resist the easy switch! There are endless DIY cleaning product projects as well to try that are safe for you, your pets, family, & the Earth!


-No Plastic Water Bottles-

Opt for a stainless steel or glass water bottle for on the go or keep them in your fridge over night. Water filters are always an amazing option to ensure you're getting clean & fresh water.
