Celebrate the Entire Month of April
This April 22nd marks the 37th anniversary of the Earth Day Celebration. Earth Day, started back in 1970, is meant to remind us why it’s important to stop and look at our everyday actions and consider the affects that we are having on the environment. It’s only fitting that Mother Nature gets a holiday of her own. For the entire month of April I will post a new tip everyday on the small changes that you can make in your day to day lives to make that positive environmental impact.
Tip #1 - Energy efficient equipment can save an average household almost a third on their home energy bills with similar savings of greenhouse gases. Consider installing CFLs in 
place of the old fashioned light bulb, or if you’re in the market for a new appliance, look for the Energy Star label. The Energy Star label means that the product consumes less energy, and if you live in the District, you may be eligible for a rebate.
