Today is Earth Day and a day to focus on loving our earth. Big things tend to get the attention but everybody doing little things every day have a huge impact on the earth. Here a few simple things that make a huge difference over time.

Commute or run errands by bike
Don’t buy bottled water. The bottles use a huge amount of oil and many of them end up in landfills.
