You may have celebrated on Sunday, but Earth Day 2008 is actually today! Besides going green with your Zlioshop, here’s some other things you can do everday to save energy and help the planet:

• Recycle: It may seem annoying to separate the plastics from the glass, but if you take a look at how much we use everday you can see what a real difference recycling makes.
• Turn off the lights when you leave the room: If you’re not there, you won’t notice, so turn stuff off when you leave!
• Turn off the water when brushing your teeth: This small action can save GALLONS of water per week. Really.
• Use Energy Star appliances: Nobody’s saying you have to replace everything you own, but if you’re buying something new, why not help the environment at the same time? 
• Fix those leaks: Leaky faucets, refrigerators, pipes, AC units, and washing machines can be incredible wasteful – so get them fixed and save your self some money while saving the planet some water. 
• Plant a tree: There’s even organizations that will help you do it like ArborDay.org
• Walk Somewhere: Why not get some exercise and fresh air by walking somewhere instead of driving? Too far? Be European and ride a bike

Remember: Our merchants have tons of energy saving appliances, recycled and organic products, and other environmentally friendly items for your Zlioshops!
