While on our journey it is hard not to pick up our heads from time to time and see and appreciate all that is around us. The beauty of the landscape and the resources that are available to us are truly worth admiring and appreciating. We also have to remind ourselves that mother earth and all that inhabits the land and the water have an equal right to these amazing resources. To continue to make this happen we have to protect the earth and all of the resources that are available to us. And to help us do this and to provide a vessel for what we can do we can use the following “Green Life” list to serve as the basis for what we can do. This is just a short list so let’s add to it and then live by it, we will all be better off for it.
