Spend an hour outside every day and revist why we must work to protect all that is  around us.  Following the example of NWF's Green Hour Program-- www.greenhour.org
As a society, we are raising the first generation of Americans to grow up disconnected from nature. That's the bad news.

The good news is that the steps that got us here are easily traced, and the way to work toward reversing them is clear. Most importantly, by giving our children and ourselves a "Green Hour" a day -- a bit of time for unstructured play and interaction with the natural world -- we can set them on the path toward physical, mental, and emotional well-being.


Take the time,it is just an hour outside,  we could all use the fresh air!
