The Earth’s core is red
The oceans are blue
We’d like to keep it that way
And you can help too!
In preparation for Earth Day here are 5 ways you can help the cause and save the planet.
- Educate yourself on the threat plastics pose to the environment and animals that live there.
- Find your local recycling center and check out all the things that CAN be recycled you may not have known about.
- Organize a stream clean-up.
- Donate to organizations that contribute to environmental efforts.
- Support legislation that benefits the environment.
