It wasn’t always like this. Pictured above is President Roosevelt during a republican administration at Yosemite National Park. Roosevelt used his authority to establish 150 national forests, 51 federal bird reserves, four national game preserves, five national parks and 18 national monuments on over 230 million acres of public land.

Whatever happens with results this week for our nation, we must stay vigilant to our cause. We will continue to fight the good fight - for our planet, our grandchildren, & for all life on earth.

Leadership is critical to our success, but there are leaders at all levels including local organizations, and you. We love the mantra “think global - act local.” Your voice, your environmental advocacy, your passion, it can shift our nations culture and mindset. Your voice is more powerful than you know and has drastic impact on the world.

We must remember that earth day should be every day. In order for us to have a bright future for future generations, we must to stand together united as one. Despite everything going on - I think we can all agree as a people that nature is important. That our oceans are important. I’ve never met a single person that ever thought littering was okay, & that nature isn’t something we should admire.

couldn’t have said it better. “Save the Earth” really means “Save the Humans” or "Save the Life on Earth”. Earth the planet will outlast all extinctions.

Time to get to work. Help us fight. We’ll be posting environmental organizations we admire, initiatives you can donate to, & teams to join in the coming weeks and months.

WEEKLY TIP: When ordering food delivery, make sure to opt out of plastic utensils if you’re eating at home!

These one-use plastics add up quickly and end up in the garbage (sometimes not even being used).

Its that time of year where everyone is performing spring cleaning! Before throwing anything away be sure to ask yourself if someone else could use it. If you think there’s a chance, put it aside and bring it to a Goodwill drop off center.
Right now there are a lot of COVID closures going on, and this includes many Goodwill drop off centers. Please stay safe and hold onto your donation items somewhere in your home instead of throwing it away! When things are safe again, someone can still use your old belongings.
Remember it’s important to recycle - but the first 2 things we should always try doing first is reducing and reusing. Stay safe out there everyone!

Sadly, most plastic bags are are still not as widely recycled as other forms of plastic. According to the , only 12% of plastics that includes bags, sacks, and wraps ended up getting recycled in 2012.
A good reminder: If the plastic material in question can be wrapped around your finger, it doesn't belong in your recycle bin.
When plastic bags get mixed in with other recyclables, they often jam or damage the machines at materials recovery facilities and slow down the recycling process. Therefore, most communities do not accept plastic bags and other soft plastics through their curbside recycling programs. Many end up either in landfills, littered throughout our streets, or even get mistaken as food by marine animals.
The best thing to do is to stop using plastic bags completely by taking advantage of . However, if you end up with a plastic bag, you still can recycle them. First, check to see if your community’s curbside recycling program accepts plastics bags. If they’re not accepted, make sure you don’t mix them in with other recyclables in your bin. Instead, take them to a drop-off recycling location. Most large grocery chains, home improvement stores, and retailers like Lowes, Home Depot, Wal-Mart and Target provide collection bins, usually by the main entrance.

With many of us working from home during this pandemic, we wanted to share some green tips for the week that might help!
Depending on where you live, it still might be a bit chilly out - especially for us in the ! If it's a brisk sunny day, open up all of your curtains and blinds instead of cranking up the thermostat too high. Sunlight shining through the windows will heat up the home. Using natural light will also allow you to turn off your lights in your office to save energy.
Come night time make sure to close everything, as heat loss can also move rapidly through the windows forcing your furnace to run longer just to maintain temperatures.

Earth Hour is one of the world's largest grassroots movements for the environment engaging millions of people to switch off their lights to show support for our planet. This occurs tonight at 8:30PM, your local time! Earth Hour goes far beyond the symbolic action of switching off - it has become a catalyst for positive environmental impact, driving major legislative changes by harnessing the power of the people and collective action.

“At its core, has always been about the power of the people. During these times, whilst we may not be able to get together in person, we can still symbolically stand in solidarity with millions of others across the world from the comfort of our own homes.”

Here’s a few ideas you can do to participate in Earth Hour!

1) Only have a minute? Add your Voice to call on world leaders to take urgent action to protect and restore nature! Our Voice for the Planet petition will be presented at major global conferences later in the year. Sign up at https://www.earthhour.org/voice

2) Switch off your lights! This is the DNA of the earth hour movement, and the easiest way to participate, let’s take this time to have one hour of not looking at our screens – and have conversations with your roommates, family members, maybe even a group call to find out how everyone is doing!

3) Show your creativity and share how you’re participating by using hashtag on your social media! Let’s share uplifting and positive images to the hashtag to help support the movement.
