Today is blog action day. And I just found out. What is blog action day you ask?

“What would happen if every blog published posts discussing the same issue, on the same day? One issue. One day. Thousands of voices.”

That is blog action day in a nutshell.  Today’s theme happens to be about the environment. Why not? Environmental crisis, in my opinion, is the single biggest threat to human, indeed many species’ existence. It has been in our radar a long time and all that time should have been enough to avert this disaster. But the threat continues to grow and, according to many scientists, has brought us to the brink of no return. We need to act now. Don’t think what other people are doing, or not doing. What are you doing? How will you answer to your kids and grandkids when they ask what did you do to prevent the natural catastrophe?

Every little bit helps. Recycling a sheet of paper or a pint of oil means that your offspring will have that much more. It sounds silly but I dare you to track the things you waste thinking, “this won’t make a difference.”

There are many organizations that exist that make helping the environment a little more than what you can do just by reducing, reusing and recycling your waster. And best part is that it does not cost you anything more than a few minutes out of your daily life.

Care2.com has a click to donate program where you click on a image that shows you a few ads. Does not cost you anything and you are not obligated to buy anything but you have done a little extra to save the planet for your children. You can even track to see how big a difference you are making.

Join Care2.com’s Race to Stop Global Warming!

 Ecologyfund.com and TheRainForestSite have similar programs. None of these programs cost you anything more than a few seconds. You could do this while downloading your email, listening to messages or any number of things that allow you to do multiple things at the same time. Please check them out and help save the future of our children.
