FACT : Up to 95% of the original forest areas in the U.S.A. have been cut down. Half the earth's forest are gone. How sad is that?
How can you help?
Plant a tree!
FACT: Polar bears are suffering because of the melting of the ice. Less ice means they have to swim farther distances to get food. When they can't find ice to sit on they can drown.
How can you help?
Get educated about animals and do not purchase products made from animal products.
Join the World Wildlife Foundation. Buying a membership for a friend makes a great gift!
FACT: Did you know, wind energy is pollution free?
How can you help save energy?
Try unplugging your phone chargers, computers and televisions when not in use.
FACT: Conventional fruits and vegetables may have unhealthy chemicals and pesticides on them. Unfortunately, even after washing them they may still be there.
What can you do to help yourself stay healthy?
Learn more about the foods you eat, try and purchase organic fruits and vegetables and better yet, plant your own garden.
FACT: Every year Americans make more than 230 million tons of solid waste. That is approximately the weight of 46 million elephants. Think about that!!!
What can you do to reduce this amount?
Let's keep it simple :
RECYCLE-----RECYCLE------RECYCLE and REUSE-----REUSE-----REUSE
FACT: Trash on the beach and in our oceans injures and may kill animals and sea life.
What can you do to help these beautiful and defenseless animals and sea life?
PICK UP YOUR TRASH AND GET FRIENDS TOGETHER AND CLEAN UP THE BEACH, LAKE OR OTHER LOCAL AREAS.
