Welcome to Earth Day. Can you feel it, like some thing new just happened? Is your thumb tingling and turning green?

Yeah, it’s not something you can feel and it’s not something you usually look forward to. It’s not a day about you but a day about saving the planet. “Earth” does so much for us, we would not even exist if there was no Earth to support us.

So lets give Earth a Day. Don’t just do something good today but make it a day of reflection. Use today to see what you could be doing better throughout your life.

Try to cut back on the amount of garbage you use in a year. Its not too hard. Look at getting a reusable bag for your favorite grocery store. These bags usually cost about 99 cents, they are much stronger than plastic bags, and they stay the proper shape and don’t dump all of your groceries in your trunk when driving home. Also, if you do collect plastic bags, many grocery stores have plastic bag collection bins so that they can be recycled.

As with the reusable bags there are many different things that you can do to save the earth that will also benefit you! Look for things to do that will save you time and money because it will be much easier to continue.

What do you plan on doing for Earth Day?

We have gotten through the first day at the Earth Day Expo in Rochester, MI. Below are some pictures of our booth. If you were unable to view our booth at the event I will tell you here that we are showing our new childrens book, Larry the Litterbug. The book should launch next month and you can see it one last time before then at the Earth Day Expo today until 4 PM. Have a great day and we hope to see you there!

The creators of Greener Thinking would like to introduce our newest project to the world… Larry the Litterbug! Larry the Litterbug is a children’s book that was written and illustrated by the three of us here at Greener Thinking. LTLB is a story intended to teach kids about the dangers of polluting their environment. We feel that getting this message out to people at a young age is vital to making a difference to the overall outlook of our society. We are currently working on the final details of the book with our publisher, but expect it to be released next month. To see an advanced copy of the book, visit us at our exhibit at the Earth Day Expo in Rochester, MI April 18th and 19th.

Rochester, MI is throwing the Earth Day Expo and we are going to be there! We will be there to talk about Greener Thinking and the reason that we started, to promote Greener Thinking while saving money. We will be giving out cards with green tips and a coloring page promoting our new kids book. This new book is called Larry the Litterbug and has full color hand drawn artwork and is very exciting.

Well have a great time at the event we hope to see you there!

If you are unable to get the coloring page but would still like to check it out, right click on the image below and save it to your computer and print it… on recycled paper.
