Think Local this 4th of July

Let’s face it – it’s hard to “green” a fireworks celebration, but here are some ideas for an environmentally friendly 4th of July

• Instead of using paper plates at the party, bring out your everyday dishes and serving utensils. Have labels or charms available for guests to put on their drinking glasses.
• Ride your bike to a local fireworks celebration or have your own by banging pots and pans (the kids will love it), and having a star-spangled sing along.
• Buy your meat from the farmers market or purchase local poultry or vegetarian options from the grocery store.
• Use a propane grill which produces about half the greenhouse emissions as charcoal.
