Turn a New Leaf This April - 14 Eco-Friendly Ways to Celebrate Earth Day
Apr 05, 2022
Earth Day comes around each year on April 22nd, and it's the perfect opportunity to show some love to Mother Earth, celebrate how it supports us, and support it right back.
You don't have to make a big splash to create meaningful, sustainable change – you can celebrate in small ways at home that still make a real impact.
Grab some friends and make a fun day out of it with these 14 eco-friendly ideas:
1. Shop Sustainable!

2. Buy a Cute Reusable Bottle 💦
Ditch plastic for good. Invest in a cute reusable water bottle and use it daily to achieve your hydration goals. You can find one that motivates your water habits or decorate one with your favorite stickers. Make it something you look forward to using.
3. Start an At-Home Compost 🥬
Make the most of your food scraps with an at-home compost pile. Use composting machines or do it the old-fashioned way with a pile in the backyard.
4. Start a Windowsill Garden 🪴
Don't have space for a full garden? Pot some herbs and produce on a windowsill and enjoy the fruits (or veggies) of your labor.
5. Improve Home Energy Efficiency in Small Ways
Small changes can impact, like caulking openings in your door to reduce air leaks or recalibrating your refrigerator temperature.
6. Grocery Shop Smarter
Instead of using plastic bags, bring your reusable totes to carry your groceries home.
7. Build a Birdhouse 🐤
Attract chirping birds and create a healthy backyard ecosystem by building a birdhouse and watching them flock.
8. Get Outside
You don't have to do anything crazy – simply getting outside and spending time breathing fresh air is good for the soul.
