Happy Fourth of July… almost!
To me, the fourth of July is synonymous with barbeques, picnics and fireworks… oh yeah, and all that patriotism stuff too.
Here are a few green tips to consider as you enjoy your extended weekend:
- Use dishware and silverware - no paper plates & cups and plastic utensils if you can avoid it.
- Eat locally grown fruits & veggies.
- Avoid red meat - try a veggie burger. It’s not that bad, I promise!
- Compost your garbage.
- Cook with charcoal, not propane. I just learned that it’s a better alternative since it comes from wood, rather than fossil fuels.
- Friends having a party? Carpool with others and help spare the air…and your wallet!
I’m sure our readers have dozens of other tips to share - don’t be shy in sharing!
From all of us at TTMYGG, we wish you all a safe and wonderful fourth of July!
