Earth Day

Earth day is here and it got me thinking of all the beautiful places I would love to visit in my lifetime.

Today is Earth Day 2016. It is a day that we are to find ways to try to clean up our environment. As a result,  Delta Tire & Custom Wheels and Blessing Hospital are hosting a used tire collection for recycling in honor of Earth Day.  The collection will take place tomorrow, Saturday, April 23, from 8 am to 4 pm.

The City of Hannibal was named a 2015 Tree City USA for the 15th time. The Arbor Day Foundation recognizes cities for commitment to effective urban forest management.

Today is Earth Day, a day that we all should step back and think about how we can conserve or recycle to make our planet better. We should all give some thought about helping, not only as individuals, but also as businesses and as a government. With that in mind, here are a few things Missouri, Illinois and Iowa are doing to conserve.

With Earth Day arriving this weekend, the focus is on the environment and how we can save it. While politicians and community leaders are leading an ongoing charge to make large changes to how to get and use energy, everyone can do his or her part with some small steps around the house or in your daily routine.
