Happyy Earth Day!

Full Description:

Your Earth Day To-Do List! The bad news: Global warming is real. The better news: there are real ways you can help. In honor of Earth Day, here are five things you can do to make a cleaner planet and a better tomorrow. The best part is they are low-cost or free -- but have a huge impact. 1. Reduce. Here's a bright idea: Swap out five standard light bulbs for energy-saving compact fluorescents. They use 25% less energy and last 10 times as long. Other ways to save: unplug unused appliances and take public transit. 2. Offset. Once you've done what you can to reduce your impact on the environment, offset the rest. Make a donation to reverse thegreenhouse gases you produce. Go to CarbonFund.org: 3. Recycle. Have an old cellphone just sitting in a drawer? CollectiveGood can send these phones for use in developing countries,or safely recycles materials from them. To donate your phone today (the shipping is free), go to CollectiveGood.com: 4. Take Action. We need bold action to solve the climate crisis. The United States is currently responsible for nearly 25% of the world's greenhouse gas emissions, so we need to take the lead in solving the problem. Senators Boxer and Sanders have come forward with a bill to achieve 80% emissions reductions by 2050; click here to support the Global Warming Pollution Reduction Act: http://act.actforchange.com/cg­i-bin7/DM/y/etQc0Q1Ate0COb0Bae­i0EW 5.
