			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://parkhowell.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/image016.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-3450" title="image016" src="http://parkhowell.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/image016.jpg" alt="image016" width="512" height="382" /></a>Yippee, it&#8217;s Earth Day. The annual celebration of the best of our intentions to help change the world and save our planet.  And yet our ecosystem remains rather indifferent to our eco-affiliations, environmental causes and green agendas.  In it&#8217;s brilliant simplicity, the planet responds to only one thing: ACTION.</p>
<p><strong>Mother Nature Could Care Less&#8230;</strong></p>
<blockquote><p><strong>&#8230;whether you&#8217;re Republican, Democratic, Green Party or Independent:</strong> Partisanship aside, the globe warms us all equally. Personally become more sustainable and worry about the party later.</p>
<p><strong>&#8230;whether you&#8217;re a man or woman:</strong> C02 does not discriminate. Pay attention to your carbon footprint and learn how you can reduce it.</p>
<p><strong>&#8230;whether you&#8217;re rich or poor, or somewhere in between:</strong> Maybe you can&#8217;t afford a hybrid car or solar for your home, but you certainly can&#8217;t afford to ignore the FREE and easy things you can do to help save the planet and your money; like turning down your thermostat, recycling, and re-purposing stuff.</p>
<p><strong>&#8230;whether you&#8217;re young or old:</strong> Our lungs all work the same,  and most of them are extremely efficient at sucking in air pollution.  The clear solution is to simply drive less.</p>
<p><strong>&#8230;whether you&#8217;re good looking or ugly:</strong> No one is immune to free radicals from environmental toxins that ravage our bodies. Detoxify your home with natural cleaners.</p>
<p><strong>&#8230;whether you&#8217;re bright or dim:</strong> Switch to CFL light bulbs.</p>
<p><strong>&#8230;whether you&#8217;re an environmentalist or redneck:</strong> When a species becomes extinct, we all lose. Support smart land management and care for the outdoors like it&#8217;s your indoors.</p>
<p><strong>&#8230;whether you&#8217;re a shopaholic or miser:</strong> Non-sustainable products produced by carbon belching factories cost consumers much more than money, so vote with your wallet and buy green.</p>
<p><strong>&#8230;whether or not you&#8217;re thirsty:</strong> When we run out of clean drinking water, we run out. So please use our water wisely, and you&#8217;ll conserve some cash while you&#8217;re at it.</p>
<p><strong>&#8230;whether or not you&#8217;ve got a green thumb:</strong> Everyone pays the same market and environmental price for our produce. Plant an organic garden – weeds and all – and save money, the planet, and some sanity.</p>
<p><strong>&#8230;whether you&#8217;re a titan of industry or child laborer: </strong>Inequality in the workplace threatens to dismantle the world economy. Ask for and buy fair trade when you can.</p>
<p><strong>&#8230;whether you&#8217;re hungry or full:</strong> When we carelessly strip our lands of natural resources to feed our collective consumption, the table becomes bare for all.</p>
<p><strong>&#8230;whether you&#8217;re an extrovert or a wallflower: </strong>The subtleties of our environment our immensely more powerful than the extremes or our beliefs. As Gandhi said, &#8220;Be the change you want to see in the world.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>&#8230;whether you&#8217;re a believer or an atheist:</strong> When it&#8217;s all said and done, we all compost equally – Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.</p></blockquote>
<p>So today, celebrate Earth Day.  <a href="http://parkhowell.com/uncategorized/download-your-earth-hour-to-earth-day-challenge-calendar-and-start-saving-the-planet-5-minutes-at-a-time">Download this calendar</a> of the 26 things you can do in less than five minutes each day to save the world. It won&#8217;t cost you a dime. You can use it during any month. You&#8217;ll probably save the planet, and a thousand bucks.</p>
