Make it Everyday

If tomorrow is Earth Day, then what exactly are all the other 364 days of the year? The truth is, we owe absolutely everything & life as we know it to this delicate planet, and a bit of gratitude & stewardship are in order. Here are some easy tips to make everyday Earth Day:

AT HOME

*Have the family gather around one TV, rather than being scattered into individual rooms

*Avoid doing laundry until you have a full load

*Replace current light bulbs with energy-efficient versions

AT THE OFFICE

*Use both sides of a sheet of paper (we do!)

*Turn off lights in rooms that are rarely used

*Implement a recycling program, if one doesn't already exist

AT THE MARKET

*Ditch the plastic bag & bring your own reusable one

*Avoid individually-packed snacks. The less packaging, the better.

*Buy more organic produce

*Step out of the supermarket & head to a farmers market for local produce

The little things DO add up. Put very simply, you can do something (even if seemingly minimal), or you can do nothing. This Earth has given us everything. What will we give back?

To do our part, the Sencha Naturals facility is powered by 100% clean solar energy. We use 100% recycled paper in the office, our SEN CHA product boxes are made of recycled paper, and we re-use our Green Tea Mint canisters to hold paper clips & other office paraphernalia.
