Ontario Celebrates Earth Week April 18-22
Monday, April 18, 2016
Take advantage of Earth Week to help fight climate change and care for our planet. Here are some helpful tips to help you reduce your impact on the environment:
- Take a walk around the block or try pedal power instead of driving your car to reduce greenhouse gas emissions
- Buy and eat fresh local produce to lower transportation emissions into the air
- Carry your water bottle to quench your thirst and refill with Ontario tap water to keep plastic out of landfills
- Adjust your thermostat to save money and help fight climate change. For example, add another blanket on your bed in the winter.
- Don't forget about the three R's - reduce, reuse, recycle. Help reduce waste going to the landfill that could otherwise be recycled, reused or composted.
