Earth Day Every Day

Earth Day 🌎 Every Day 💙

Since the 1970s billions of people around the world have been coming together to celebrate & honor our mother earth for over 50 years promoting awareness for the health of our environment, our home, and our planet Every day should be Earth day!

"We don't inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children" ~ Native American Proverb

Without our precious mother earth, we would not exist, she is what connects us ALL.

"We need Joy as we need air. We need Love as we need water. We need each other as we need the earth we share" ~ Maya Angelou

I used to think I had to live a perfect totally green ecofriendly sustainable life in order to make a difference and to feel like I was doing enough. I've learned that, for me personally, I do better focusing on doing the things I can do, imperfectly, rather than stress myself out trying to be a perfectionist doing it all!

I've learned that the little things I do daily add up and do make a difference. So make every day Earth day by doing the little things you can do to love our planet and make it a little better for you and me.

Here are some ways you can help make a difference daily. Remember every little bit adds up!
