What Can Others and Our VC Community Do To Help Habitat Destruction?

Anyone can get involved! Although the issue of habitat destruction is world-wide, students and staff in our Valley Catholic community can still help in a small way. One way to help is to get active and maintain your home yard. In our community we can help benefit plants and animals by keeping up the maintenance in the yard. If gardening and planting is an interest, plant trees and bushes at your home. When gardening, decrease the chemical fertilizer used in planting. When going to the grocery store, reduce the use of disposable bags, or other containers used at home. Think smart when driving, lower time spent on the road, there are solutions like carpooling and cutting down gas usage. Save energy in your homes, turn off the light or use natural light during the day time. Inform companies that send out catalogs to reduce their use of paper. If people want to get more involved, contact an organization and ask for other ways to help. Make it public that you want to help! Do not sit back and watch habitats get destroyed, take action!
