Letter to the editor: Check your footprint

To the editor:

Hello, I’m a holistic nurse who lives in Lawrence. In order to promote better health for all, I encourage the Journal-World and its readers to make a deeper connection with the wonder of the Earth and to reduce your environmental footprint.

Here is a fun and easy footprint calculator to help you: www.earthday.org/take-action/footprint-calculator. The EarthDay.org website has many more tips for how to be a better steward of the Earth.

April 22 marks the 48th anniversary of Earth Day, but what we need is to live sustainably every day.

The Earth is our only home. Let’s do all we can to love and protect it.
