With Earth Day coming up on April 22 we’ll all be reminded to evaluate our everyday choices and consider what impact they have on the environment. There are so many ways to celebrate the beauty of the planet, like spending time walking outside, cleaning up litter on a beach or local park, and taking the time to learn about environmental issues. This is more important than ever this year, as the health of our environment has been at the forefront of conversation throughout what has been the warmest winter on record in some places, and the most catastrophic with bizarre fluctuating temperatures and dangerous storms in others.
