GREENCulture blog We put the “green” in greenyness!

By celebrating Earth Day in a simple way, you might find that the effort can lead to something you can see yourself doing every day, or at least consistently, if you haven’t already. As a starter, here are seven simple things you can do to contribute to the cause:

1. Plant some flowers, or a tree. Get some flower seeds, or a small tree if you prefer, and plant something in your yard. You’d put a great big smile on Earth’s face.

2. Recycle something. Instead of tossing that finished can of soda or bottled water in just any trash bin, take an extra step and find a recycle bin.

3. Let’s face it, there is litter everywhere. If you see an unsightly display of litter on the streets within your reaches, lend a helping hand. You will be amazed how good it feels.

4. Think you want to do more? Interested in furthering the good cause in your home? Look into composting. For the gardening enthusiast, composting is a wonderful way to use your kitchen scraps as nutrient-rich soil for your garden.

5. Want to do a little shopping today? On your short trips to the local supermarket that you normally drive to can be traveled the same on a bike or by foot. Keeping your car off the road for a bit of exercise is a win/win situation. Or, better yet, a greener alternative is to shop online.

6. And greener still as you shop online is to shop green. Our wood, metal, and glass based furniture and lighting products are made with sustainable features such as recycled and recyclable sources. Whether you’re looking for a floor lamp, dining table, coffee table, or wool rugs, GreenCulture carries a diverse selction of eco-friendly home furnishings.

7. Lastly, spread the word. Socially share your green experience with others on your blog or your twitter.

Happy Earth Day!
