Happy Earth Day from PEP!

Did you know that this is the 50th anniversary of Earth Day? Celebrating Earth Day may be a bit more of a challenge this year, but that doesn’t mean we can’t do our part. While large social projects and clean-ups are not feasible, there are many things we can do as employers and individuals to help make a difference. Check out these ideas from the Wildlife Habitat Council.

Act. Speak Up. Stay Engaged.

• Take action at home with things like recycling, conserving water, saving electricity and planting seeds.
• Advocate for planet and people in your community and with your representatives.
• Stay engaged through citizen science efforts: get involved with the Mobile Bay National Estuary Program.

Organize Your Own Litter Clean-Up

• Pick up litter around your business or home.
• Be sure to take a pic, share in on Facebook and tag PEP so we can share the great work you’re doing for our environment.
• Check out this great litter walk challenge from the Osprey Initiative: Litter Challenge Printable
• And remember, we can celebrate Earth Day ever day!
