celebrate Earth Day with EARTHWORKS   :)

It's my day!

This Earth Day,
Reduce, Reuse, & Recycle with EARTHWORKS

Today, Earth Day, help protect communities and the environment from the negative impacts of mining, digging and drilling. It's easy. Just reduce, reuse and recycle with EARTHWORKS.

REDUCE
 

Use your consumer power! Send a signal to the mining, digging and drilling industries that they need to clean up their act.

Sign the No Dirty Energy pledge

http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/676/t/7319/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=205&track=EWalert

to push drilling companies to behave more responsibly. And sign the No Dirty Gold pledge

http://www.nodirtygold.org/take_action.cfm

to encourage retailers to responsibly source their gold and other metals.

REUSE

Spring cleaning? Don't trash the thingawhatzit that you finally mustered the willpower to get rid of. Freecycle it instead!

Freecycle is a community who communicates via email list whenever they have something they want to give away (or get) -- for free. Check it out.

RECYCLE

If you've got an old mobile phone, don't toss it in the trash. If it's landfilled, the toxic heavy metals it contains could leach into groundwater. Recycle it instead. Go to recyclemycellphone.org and you can recycle your cell phone for free, from home. Just print out the postage paid label and mail.
