Celebrating Mother Earth Day

A Special Message from Kisseo E-card

Celebrate Mother Earth

This Sunday is Earth Day, a day to celebrate the amazing planet we live on. To kick off the weekend, here are some fun facts to impress your friends with:

• Earth Day is the largest non-religious holiday celebrated in the world, with 175 countries observing it.
• The energy gained from recycling one aluminum can could power a TV for three hours.
• Recyclying aluminum cans requires 90% less energy than making new ones.
• 1 bus carries as many people as 40 cars.
• Each person throws away about 4 pounds of garbage per day.
• 84% of household waste can be recycled.

And now for some quick and easy tips to help the planet:

• Reusable grocery bags: Not only do you save the energy used to produce all those plastic bags that eventually end up in landfills, but they're sturdier. Your next 6-pack or bottle of wine will thank you.
• Turn off the lights: Take a look around - do you really need all those lights on? I personally find dinner more romantic and TV-watching more relaxing when I only have one light on. Bonus points for using one with a dimmer switch.
• Walk to the ice cream shop: Instead of driving, walk there! You'll save gas and (minimal) wear and tear on your car, plus you'll burn off some of the calories before you even get there. Guilt-free ice cream tastes so much better!
• Send a free Earth Day ecard to your friends - awareness is one of the most important aspects in any cause!
