Happy Earth Day!
WE ARE A PART OF THIS EARTH, NOT SEPARATE FROM.
WE ARE NATURE.
EVERY ACTION WE TAKE HAS AN IMPACT, AND WE GET TO CHOOSE WHAT WE WANT OUR IMPACT TO BE.
We invite you to take a few moments today to ask yourself;
What type of impact am I having?
Do I desire to be having a different impact?
If so, what are some small changes I can do to adjust my impact to be more what I desire?
Some examples may be...
Am I mindful about the food on my plate and how it gets there?
How much do I purchase that is new versus reused or
repurposed?
When I do buy new, do I try to buy items made locally or as close by as possible? Do I try to buy items that are from recycled goods, fair trade, and organic?
When I buy things do I think about where they come from, how they are made, and the resources required for me to purchase them?
Do I over consume?
Are my cleaning products, toiletries, and make-up, cruelty free? Are they all natural products? Organic? Eco-friendly?
How much plastic to I purchase?
Do I recycle?
Do I compost?
Do I walk, ride a bike, bus, or carpool when possible?
Do I spray my yard and/or garden with pesticides or herbicides?
Do I use products that can be harmful to water ways, the soil, animals, or insects?
Do I buy products that contain animals or their byproducts?
Do I try to buy and use only what I need?
Do I vote?
Today we celebrate and take time to check in, but everyday is Earth Day!
