Celebrate Earth Day! 
April 22 is Earth Day. For the last two weeks we have been writing about
environmental issues - first the effect that nature can have on our
health and then a list of actions that we can take to help preserve
the environment. This week we'd like to suggest a few more things that
we can try.
On a household level, we can: 
- cultivate houseplants - They filter pollutants
from indoor air.
- use environmentally friendly cleaning products
- Vinegar is a mild disinfectant and baking soda is a mild abrasive.
- limit (or eliminate) our use of pesticides and
herbicides
- find ways to use less water
On a community level, we can ask for:
- parks, trees, and other plantings that are suited
to our climate (use less water, etc.)
- safe places to walk and bike to work and on
errands
On a larger scale, we can:
We have been putting the Eastern-ease together for a year now. We would
like to hear back from you. How are we doing? Do we provide you with
information that is useful? Are there topics you would like us to cover?
Send your responses to mary.drabbs@enmu.edu.
And thanks for opening this page!
