Earth Day is today!
A great reminder to be aware of the environment and climate change. Nevertheless, as I state on my IG account and usually sign-off on my blog articles, we need to make every day an Earth Day, not just try to do be environmentally conscious for a single day. Too much is at stake for not only us but for our families in generations to come.
Hopefully I do not need to stay on this soap box for very long as I suspect most, if not all of you, are aware of the environmental issues we are facing.
So although this is a solar print, courtesy of our sun, I also know that there are also a lot of materials and resources used that may not be the most environmentally friendly. So one of my personal goals is to incorporate solar energy into our home, as my daughter and family have successfully implemented. One way or the other, for every transaction; think ‘reuse, recycle, reduce‘. Simple, eh?

Cheers & remember, make every day an Earth Day
