Today is Earth day. Last month we celebrated Earth hour to observe that an hour of paying respect to our planet can make a difference to preserve its resources. Earth day is observed as an event to raise awareness of protecting the environment. The simple acts matter in this regard. It may be nurturing a plant to life even if it may seem wilted. Not using harsh pollutant in the soil. Or even walking or cycling instead of driving a car.

The subject of preserving the environment and saving resources so that we can keep a bright future for the next generation is an important one to discuss in this day and age. When we live in a time where we feel unsure of where our food comes from and how it may be produced, what are the steps we can take to feel more secure about what we are eating?

We may choose to be pro-active growers of our own vegetables, doing away with as much plastic as we can, and buying local. Every little step from every one of us is a step worth making for the investment of our future and of our beautiful planet.
