Make a Change for Earth Day

In honour of Earth Day, pledge to make a lasting change for the earth and the animals by getting a re-usable water bottle and committing to using it, instead of buying plastic water bottles. Here's one of the reasons why:

This is a photograph of a dead albatross chick taken on Midway Atoll, a remote nesting site in the middle of the North Pacific. Every year tens of thousands of albatross chicks die on Midway from starvation, toxicity, and choking because of the plastic that their parents are accidentally feeding them. Think of the difference we could all make for animals like the albatross if we gave up using plastic water bottles!
