Tip #8: Going for a bike ride, beach walk, weekend hike or your morning jog? Remember to take along a bag to collect some of the refuse and litter that you will inevitably encounter. Every little bit helps. When we walk the beach or stroll down the avenue, we roundup a bucketful of (mostly plastic) crap as we make our way back home.

Earth Day is Friday, April 22; just like every day:)
