NATIONAL POETRY MONTH....Day Twenty-two

It's Earth Day. The last few years I tried to compose something to commentate the day and remind people about saving the planet. I do my best each day. I try to recycle whenever possible.  I have reusable tote bags for the stores. If I do end up with plastic (I sure miss the paper), I take them to a local thrift store who can use them.  I have also donated my bags to a group making mats for homeless individuals.  As for my aluminum cans, I remove the tab and donate to an organization collecting them; I donate the cans also. I reuse my gallon jug water bottles by filling them at a water station; reuse the small bottles by refilling them also. I only discard them in the recycle bin when needed.  

We all need to do our part to save the planet. 

Until tomorrow....do you recycle? Do you have a plan in your household that you stick by?

Enjoy your Sunday.

             EARTH DAY 2018

Everyone needs to do their part

     to keep our planet clean

Always recycle when you can do 

      so 

Remember put bottles, plastics, 

       cans, paper and cardboard 

          in the recycling bin

This is the only earth we have.....

       do your part to save it

Help by attending a community 

      clean-up event....have a 

            recycling plan at home and 

                   use it daily

Don't forget your reusable 

     shopping bags when you go to 

             a store 

Always check an item before 

     discarding....can it be 

             recycled? Is there another 

                    use for it?

You doing the three R's.....

        can make a difference

              REDUCE...... 

                     REUSE.......

                        and RECYCLE......
