Recycle everything.

The mission of Earth911 is to make every day Earth Day. To do so they provide free community-specific environmental information. You'll find resources on

* Recycling centers - They'll help you recycle everything from concrete to carpet to cell phones to car batteries. With their help, you may be able to recycle everything!

* Green shopping - Make sure you spend your money in ways that reflect your personal priorities.

* Energy conservation - You'll "find simple things that consumers, businesses, and children and teachers can do to help reduce energy consumption."

* Household hazardous waste - Protect yourself, your family, your community and our environment with these tips for storage, disposal, and recycling.

* Composting - One of my favorite activities! With this information on starting and using a compost pile, you can join me in this backyard fun.

Just call 1-800-CLEANUP or 1-877-EARTH911 or enter your ZIP code at Earth911.org to get started. They even have a section for kids. Earth911.org provides a wealth of information, you'll use again and again. Truly, every day is Earth day.

"To see the earth as we now see it, small and beautiful in that eternal silence where it floats, is to see ourselves as riders on the earth together, brothers on that bright loveliness in the unending night—brothers who see now they are truly brothers." - Archibald MacLeish (1892–1982), U.S. poet on the first pictures of the earth from the moon.
