Small Steps to Going Green
Going GREEN is the thing to do right now. There are all sorts of things that you can do to get started. From small simple stuff like just recycling cans to big stuff, like getting a hybrid or building a completely green house. There are a few simple things that I do to try and be green like I grow my own garden and I try to not use pesticides and use natural fertilizer. I save rainwater in a bucket and save it and use it when its not rained in a while. I don’t mow my yard as much as I used to. I found out that it was healthy for the grass, and who don’t want a pretty green yard. When I do mow my yard I save the clippings a put them in my compost pile. If you don’t have a compost pile you can get a mulching blade for your lawn mower which will cut the grass blades into fine pieces, returning them to your lawn as a natural form of fertilizer. I save my yogurt cartons and use them for my seed starter pots. They are the perfect size and you get an extra use out of them. If you drink a lot of milk you can save a jug and cut the bottom off at an angle and use it as a scoop. You can have one in your cat food, dog food, fertilizer, potting soil our just about anything else that you can scoop out. Everybody should try and do a little something to make this would a better place for our children and grandchildren. They will thank us one day for it.
