Yes, I’m a child of the ‘70s and proud. My brother &
sister were much older than me and I looked up to my sister with her long hair
and crown of daisies. She moved with grace only nature provided. Together we
convinced our friends and others to not be litter bugs, nurture a garden, save
energy, and be kind to each other. In 1970 the first Earth Day was observed.
American’s across the country learned how they could help clean the air, the
land and sea.
Many years later… my sister has a lovely garden and still
does what she can to preserve the environment.
I’ve found ways to teach my boys how to conserve energy and clean up the
environment by starting with their rooms.
Did you know you could enjoy a bit of romance while
celebrating Earth Day?
*Conserve water – Take a day off from doing the dishes and
laundry. Enjoy each other in the time you’ve recovered from a busy day. Save the water and take a shower or bath
together.
* Use the day to grill a meal outside. Sip on an adult
beverage while the steaks sizzle. Eat by candlelight in picnic style. Have each other for
dessert.
* Take a break from electronics and go for a walk. Take a
blanket to a park and lay next to each other to gaze at the stars before gazing
into each other’s eyes.
* Build a fire…in your backyard or fireplace. Make s’mores, roast hotdogs and have some
cuddle time.
