Are you doing anything special to celebrate Earth Day?
I'd like to plant a tree or something, but it's a Monday and I was planning on pulling out the two trees I lost to the freeze this winter (including my beloved Texas ash cue loud wailing sounds) and replacing them on Arbor Day. But other than taking my recycling out (it's also trash day) I can't think of anything to do to celebrate the great outdoors on a work day.
I will not walk on the grass.
@eyeflytwohigh: What's grass? (I live in the desert.)
I'm going to punch an environmentalist.
I rode my bike to work today (first time this year), saving almost a half gallon of gas.
I don't know that it is especially earth friendly, but I spent half the weekend doing a through cleaning/dusting in my bedroom (scary how much dust collects BEHIND tightly packed books on a bookshelf in less than four years). I'm planning to move through the rest of my condo, with the goal of being completely done before I pick up daughter#1 from college on May 17.
Me and some friends are going to rent a fleet of buses and have a big bonfire. But since the weather's so warm, we'll probably just let the fire go outside while we relax in a nice air-conditioned room watching the fire burn. But don't worry, we'll send someone out every little bit to throw more wood on the fire so it doesn't die out completely.
I have a friend who always watches the movie Biodome on Earth Day. I don't know if I'll have time today, but it's a possibility.
