EARTH NOTES
Go paperless. Hard copy bills require storage space or shredding, generate waste, and overall contribute nearly 2 million tons of CO2 to the atmosphere. Save paper, waste, and time by signing up for e-billing.
Talk with your friends & neighbors. Avoid purchasing rarely used tools which can be expensive and contribute to storage headaches.
Keep the summer buzzing. Help protect bees which are crucial to our food supply. Avoid using neonicotinoid products, or purchasing flowers or seed which have been treated with neonicotinoids.
Save green & keep it green. Follow label recommendations when using lawn chemicals. Overuse of these products leads to runoff which pollutes streams and rivers.
