\"Appreciating<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Traditionally, April would be a time to celebrate Earth Day and share with New York City individuals the many ways we focus on making environmentally friendly<\/a> decisions. However, given the current situation, we\u2019d like to approach Earth Day 2020 a bit differently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While we will continue to support New York City local businesses the way we always have by providing coffee and healthy fresh food, snacks and cold beverages in break rooms<\/a>, we\u2019d also like to suggest a few fun activities and small steps that everyone at home can try to celebrate Earth Day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The non-profit organization, Earth Day Network<\/a>, that organizes the event highlights more about the purpose of the day. \u201cToday, Earth Day is widely recognized as the largest secular observance in the world, marked by more than a billion people every year as a day of action to change human behavior and provoke policy changes.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The following six suggestions are small things that can be incorporated into everyday routines and support the overall goals of Earth Day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take a Walk<\/strong>
Moving is important for everyone especially now. Not only does it offer health benefits, but it can also relieve stress and boost one\u2019s mood. If it\u2019s safe in your New York City neighborhood, take a walk and safely pick up trash as you go. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Appreciating<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Plant a Garden<\/strong>
Whether it\u2019s a few tomatoes or different herbs, planting a vegetable or herb garden is a great way to provide for yourself or your family. If planting a garden in a yard isn\u2019t an option, create a small garden in several pots that can sit on a windowsill or balcony.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Declutter a Closet<\/strong>
Instead of \u201cWhat\u2019s in your wallet,\u201d we should ask, \u201cWhat\u2019s in my closet.\u201d Now is a great time to declutter a closet and remove the things that are no longer used. There might be clothes that could be donated to a local charity, too many cleaning supplies that could be shared with a family member or items that could be fixed instead of purchasing new ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conserve Water<\/strong>
There are two simple things that everyone in New York City can do to decrease the amount of water used. The first is to turn the water off when brushing your teeth. This one small step can save up to eight gallons of water a day. The second thing is to make sure there are no leaky faucets in your home. Small leaks not only waste water, but they also increase water bills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Turn off the Lights<\/strong>
This may be an old tip, but it can still have a big impact on the amount of energy being used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Go Paperless<\/strong>
With the unexpected extra time many New York City individuals now have, it\u2019s a great time to move as many bank statements and bills as possible online. Making the switch saves paper and eliminates one more expense\u2014stamps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eventually, New York City employees will be able to return to work. We\u2019d like to be there to help your organization support your employees by safely providing on-site access to everyone\u2019s favorite fresh food, snacks<\/a>, cold beverages and coffee service<\/a>. For more information, please contact March\u00e9<\/a> at 833-627-2431. We look forward to rebuilding our community together.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
