Happy Earth Day!

As mothers and citizens of planet we should all spend a few moments today thinking about how we can protect the planet for our children and grandchildren.

Here are some suggestions:
- line-dry your clothes instead of using the dryer (you'll save about 20% on your electricity bill)
- eat less meat
- drive less and less aggressively
- seal up the cracks in your house and/or have an energy audit done
- get a programmable thermostat
- unplug unneeded appliances
- shut your computer and monitor off when you are not using them
- buy energy star appliances
- fly less
- support renewable energy through bullfrogpower
- plant a tree

  1. Sounds great to me. We already do most of those... I love clothes on the line, it reminds me of my childhood.
