reduce, reuse, recycle... its that simple

Yes, this is the official earth webpage... this page i dedicate to my home and yours (unless your an alien!). There is an insignificant blue spot amongst all the stars in the universe... it spins and spins and spins... and well it has life on it... and well that life started moving and contriving in ways nature always new were possible, but probably never intended... and well... i think its just about time that we gave a little back to the earth instead of taking from it constantly. after all, there is only one earth, so we better treat her right

now i dont want to sound preachy because i know im not perfect and i probably have done more harm to this earth than good in a lot of ways, but im making a conscious decision to try and help the earth and im talking to people about how they can as well... now this doesnt mean that you have to constantly be thinking... ok... how is this going to hurt the environment... but it does mean that if you go a little out of your way to try and help the environment

simple things can make all the difference... heres a few ideas...

conserve electricity:
walk up stairs instead of taking the elevator
open a window instead of turning on the lights
turn off your sterio instead of just turning off your music
use candles if you dont need a lot of light
turn off your porch light if no one is expected home
close your refrigerator door
close your car door
dont repeatedly flicker lights
make a conscious decision to conserve electricity and ideas will come easier than you think
talk to people

conserve gas:
carpool
walk
take a train or bus, its like big style car pooling!
choose gasolines with higher amounts of ethanol
make a conscious decision and ideas will come easier than you think
talk to people

conserve oxygen:
dont breathe! (just kidding)
dont use aerosol can sor use them sparingly
dont use air conditioners or use them sparingly
plant a tree
plant two trees
plant a whole garden
dont mow your grass quite as often
dont throw away plastic, recycle it!
make sure your car has a catalytic converter
try not to smoke ciggarettes
its easy to find ideas if you make a conscious decision
talk to people

recycle:
its simple... i know its tiresome and i know its tedious and i know that that little pepsi can wont do much harm... but the problem is we have millions of these little pepsi cans floating around in huge mounds of garbage covered up by earth...
buy items that are recycled... i know they are more expensive, but its an investment in the future
talk to people

now there are countless ways to conserve our resources and there are countless things to keep in mind and i couldnt possibly list them all here, but please feel free to email me if you have any questions or concerns... im not an authority, but i will find one...
