As with most efforts, the first step to action is awareness. The Environmental Working Group (EWG) aims to increase accessible information about local tap water by releasing a Tap Water Database. As of today, many Americans can learn about potentially harmful chemicals in their drinking water and what scientists say are the safe levels of those contaminants. This source provides valuable data on the quality of water from nearly 50,000 public water systems in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Action should be taken to reduce water contaminants, but until that is achieved EWG also provides a list of beneficial water filter systems. 💧#happyearth #clothesforconservation . 📸: @bprops . . . #wonderful_places #beautifulmatters #watchthisinstagood #welivetoexplore #ourplanetdaily #roamtheplanet #liveoutdoors #earthpix #earthofficial #exploretocreate #staywild #beautifuldestinations #adventureculture #theweekoninstagram #folkscenery #yourshotphotographer #awakethesoul #alpinebabes #awesome_earthpix #mountaingirls #wildernessculture #passionpassport #aroundtheworldpix #takemoreadventures #awesome_photographers As expected, it turns out deforestation is a financially- weighted issue. In many cases, simply paying villagers not to cut down forests works. Of course, this strategy won't affect larger operations, but it may prove useful in protecting heretofore untargetted land. A study published in Science has shown how effective such programs can be. #happyearth #clothesforconservation . . 📸 @em_green_1014 . . #wonderful_places #beautifulmatters #watchthisinstagood #welivetoexplore #ourplanetdaily #roamtheplanet #liveoutdoors #earthpix #earthofficial #exploretocreate #staywild #beautifuldestinations #adventureculture #theweekoninstagram #folkscenery #yourshotphotographer #awakethesoul #alpinebabes #awesome_earthpix #mountaingirls #wildernessculture #passionpassport #aroundtheworldpix #takemoreadventures #awesome_photographers New eco technology is always exciting: a robot has been developed to help speed up trash sorting. 50% faster than humans, "Clarke" helps pull out recyclables that would otherwise go to a landfill. Small steps and improvements like this one help us create a more sustainable world. #happyearth #clothesforconservation . . 📸 @kjmaltas . . #wonderful_places #beautifulmatters #watchthisinstagood #welivetoexplore #ourplanetdaily #roamtheplanet #liveoutdoors #earthpix #earthofficial #exploretocreate #staywild #beautifuldestinations #adventureculture #theweekoninstagram #folkscenery #yourshotphotographer #awakethesoul #alpinebabes #awesome_earthpix #mountaingirls #wildernessculture #passionpassport #aroundtheworldpix #takemoreadventures #awesome_photographers Think global and act local.

There exist a number of strategies to achieve the goal of removing CO2. The approaches can be divided into two categories: conceptually simple strategies like reforestation and improved agricultural practice, and advanced tech-implemented options that need substantial development to become viable. The latter mainly aim to use chemicals or solids to capture the CO2 from the air and then store it underground or in long-lasting materials to prevent it's ability to contribute to climate change. Many of these approaches are still in their infancy, but we're excited to see how environmental scientists move forward. 🙌 🌏 #happyearth #clothesforconservation . 📸: @caylynnp . . . #adventureculture #roamtheplanet #outside_project #letsgosomewhere #adventurers #ourplanetdaily #adventurepic #welivetoexplore #passionpassport #campingcollective #backpackingculture #wildme #wildernessculture #exploremore #neverstopexploring #travelstoke #naturelovers #in2nature #simplyadventure #stayandwander #outdoorlooks Aided by the largest private land donation in history, Chile has set aside 11 MILLION acres of land for national parks! This was made possible by the Tompkins, famously known for their roles in Patagonia and North Face, through the Tompkins Foundation. #happyearth #clothesforconservation . . #adventureculture #roamtheplanet #outside_project #letsgosomewhere #adventurers #ourplanetdaily #adventurepic #welivetoexplore #passionpassport #campingcollective #backpackingculture #wildme #wildernessculture #exploremore #neverstopexploring #travelstoke #naturelovers #in2nature #simplyadventure #stayandwander #outdoorlooks Oceana, one of the organizations our Free The Seas campaign is honored to support, works to protect and restore our oceans on a global scale - an effort sorely needed with the rise of unsustainable fishing practices and increased water pollution that threatens ocean habitats. Recently, Oceana filed a lawsuit in federal court challenging the National Marine Fisheries Service's decision to withdraw a proposed rule that would have protected endangered species, including whales and sea turtles in California. This proposal was an important step forward in efforts to clean up one of the nation's dirtiest fisheries that employs drift gillnets to capture swordfish off California. On average 61 percent of individuals in the total catch is tossed overboard when using this wasteful system; the nets inflict such devastation to marine life that they have earned the name “Walls of Death.” The proposed rule would have required an immediate closure of the fishery if limits on the injury or death of nine protected species were reached. The classification of "endangered" should not be a trifling status - these species are at risk of extinction and protection should be a serious and immediate matter. 🐡 #happyearth #clothesforconservation . 📸: @abbyburkexo . . . #oceanminded #lifeofadventure #wanderlust #islandlife #rei1440project #exploremore #getoutside #travelstoke #roamtheplanet #passionpassport #placestovisit #placestosee #summer #adventureculture #roamtheplanet #outside_project #letsgosomewhere #mountainadventurers #ourplanetdaily #adventurepic #welivetoexplore #exploremore #travelstoke #outdoorwomen #in2nature #simplyadventure #stayandwander #outdoorlooks The Koch brothers are renowned for covert operations that raise profits at the expense of environmental protection. In addition to spending on congressional elections, the Koch brothers have reportedly funded a campaign to rebrand fossil fuels as “positive” and “sustainable.” Recently they released a new video attacking the Dirty Secrets of Electric Cars featuring errors, misleading statements and omissions. Although Electronic Vehicles (EV) aren't a cure-all for transportation-related toxicity - when weighing production materials and fuel - the fact remains that EVs are far cleaner than gas-powered vehicles. 🌎 🚗 #happyearth #clothesforconservation . 📸: @lexi.quam . . . #adventureculture #roamtheplanet #outside_project #letsgosomewhere #adventurers #ourplanetdaily #adventurepic #welivetoexplore #passionpassport #campingcollective #backpackingculture #wildme #wildernessculture #exploremore #neverstopexploring #travelstoke #naturelovers #in2nature #simplyadventure #stayandwander #outdoorlooks There has been a surge of articles detailing the drastic accumulation and devastating effects of plastics in our waters. Nearly 80% of ocean plastic trash comes from land-based sources; unsurprisingly, plastic bottles are consistently found to be a major source of ocean pollution. The soft drink industry sells over a million plastic bottles every minute - bottles that are designed to be discarded after a single use. Collection and recycling systems worldwide cannot keep up with this endless flow, meaning nearly half of the 600 billion plastic bottles sold each year are ending up in our environment. We need our major soft drink companies to step up and explore alternative options to reduce this tax on our planet. More, as consumers we should be aware of our impact - challenge yourself to discontinue single-use plastic for a day, a week, a month... smart changes can yield big results! 🌏 #happyearth #clothesforconservation . 📸: J.Krenik . . . #oceanminded #lifeofadventure #wanderlust #islandlife #rei1440project #exploremore #getoutside #travelstoke #roamtheplanet #passionpassport #placestovisit #placestosee #summer #adventureculture #roamtheplanet #outside_project #letsgosomewhere #mountainadventurers #ourplanetdaily #adventurepic #welivetoexplore #exploremore #travelstoke #outdoorwomen #in2nature #simplyadventure #stayandwander #outdoorlooks
