Earth Day is on March 20th so let’s celebrate here in Puyallup, WA. In today’s Canyon Park Apartments Blog we’ll be sharing a list of suggested activities that you can do on Earth Day to celebrate. We hope you have a great month!
Spend time outside. One of the best ways that you can enjoy Earth Day is by simply being outside in nature and taking advantage of its beauty.
Buy a houseplant. Houseplants will purify your air and beauty your apartment. Find one that would work well in your living environment.
Ride your bike. Eliminate the exhaust in the air by riding your bike to work or wherever else you’re heading out today.
Use a refillable water bottle. Plastic water bottles can create a lot of waste in our environment. Opt for using a refillable water bottle instead.
Pick up litter. Take some time to pick up trash around our community. Even 30 minutes of this can make a big difference.
Start recycling. Recycling is one way that you can help out the environment. If you don’t already recycle, start by using two garbage cans in your kitchen: one for recyclable items and one for everything else.
Turn off the TV. Along with spending time outside, choose to turn off the TV or other electronics. Get outside and enjoy some fresh air.
Go paperless. Start paying all of your bills online — at least the ones that allow you to do so. This can help the environment by eliminating waste and the need for paper.
Volunteer. Take some time to help out the community by volunteering. Whether that’s outside or not, do something for someone else and make the world a better place.
Update your lightbulbs. Throw out your old incandescent light bulbs and use something that’s more environment-friendly such as LEDs or Compact Fluorescent light bulbs.
Build a birdhouse. Give back to the earth by feeding the wildlife. Make a birdhouse or buy one from a local store. Fill it with food and enjoy watching the birds come visit you.
