THINK GREEN!
 THINK GREEN RECYCLE
March 2010- Eco Article

A most important date is coming up next month and everyone should know what it is by now!! APRIL 20th IS EARTH DAY! Although everyday should be earth day, at least this is a special day with global awareness.

EPA Environment Contest
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) invites the public to submit creative projects to the 4th annual Rachel Carson intergenerational "Sense of Wonder" contest. The categories are poetry, photography, essays and dance. The contest seeks to instill a sense of wonder for the environment among all generations and spur environmental stewardship. The deadline for team entries is June 16, 2010. For more information, see: www.epa.gov/. I thought this environmental contest might be fun for some of our children...Good Luck!

I just found a wonderful website for kids recycling. Below are two excerpts from that site. Why don't you get the kids together for a little brainstorming? Maybe make some games out of it and some rewards! Check out www.ecy.wa.gov.

Plastic
  • Americans use 4 million plastic bottles every hour! - yet only 1 bottle out of 4 is recycled.
  • In 1977, polyethylene terephthalate soda bottles were introduced to the market.
  • In 2002 the number of single-serving plastic beverage bottles on store shelves was 18 billion.
    • Metals
  • In 2003, Washington residents recycled 17,608 tons of aluminum cans.
  • Aluminum can recycling saves 95% of the energy needed to make aluminum from bauxite ore.
  • Americans throw away enough steel every year to build all the new cars made in America.
  • Tin cans are actually 99% steel, with a thin layer of tin added to prevent rusting.
    • Kids love this kind of stuff and love to get involved, so get them going!

    Thanks to everyone for recycling and thinking green!
