Spring starts early with this leap into loving our planet! February is all about spreading love, so why not extend that love to the wild? This month, take some time to clean up your favorite outdoor spot, or show appreciation by adopting a new eco-friendly habit.

Here are a few new habit Iideas:

• • Mindful Energy Use: Make it a habit to turn off lights and unplug electronics when not in use.
  
  

• • BYO Everything: Start carrying a reusable water bottle, coffee cup, or utensils wherever you go.
  
  

• • Weekly Cleanups: Dedicate one day a week to picking up trash in your local park or neighborhood.
  
  

Spring cleaning isn’t just for your home. Nature deserves some love too! This month, let’s step outside for a spring cleanup and clear out any litter left behind.

If the weather’s still chilly in your area, no worries. Use this time to make one sustainable swap that reduces waste and benefits the planet.

Here are a few alternative swap ideas:

• Reusable Kitchen Hacks: Replace paper towels with reusable cloths or napkins.

• Bulk Up: Buy pantry staples like grains or coffee in bulk to cut down on packaging waste.

• Compost It: Start a small compost bin for food scraps to reduce waste at home.

•Sustainable Hydration: Upgrade to a reusable water bottle and say goodbye to single-use plastics.

It’s Earth Month, and we’re on a mission to leave no trash behind! This is our time to make a massive impact for the planet by coming together for cleanups and eco-friendly actions. Let’s honor Earth Month by making the wild spaces we love cleaner, greener, and thriving.

Here’s how we can make Earth Month unforgettable:

1. Clean Where You Wander: Head to your favorite outdoor spot and pick up every piece of trash you see. Let’s leave it better than we found it!

2. All Hands on Deck: Organize a cleanup with friends or join a local Earth Month event to amplify your impact.

3. Trash Transformation: Get creative and share a before-and-after photo of a space you helped clean.

4. Wild Wonders: While you’re out there, snap a photo of something beautiful (a blooming flower, a perfect sunset, or a clear trail).

Bonus Impact: Share your photos and stories in #knw-challenges to inspire others and show off your Earth Month efforts. Together, we’ll leave no trash behind!
