Now more than ever simply going outside and getting some fresh air is important. Being cooped up inside for too long is never a good thing. It’s time to get outside and enjoy yourself. That could be done in a number of ways such as posting up, reading a book, or throwing on some tunes.
3. Walk Your Dog
Going on a walk is an easy way to get out and celebrate Earth Day. Who doesn’t love dogs though? So you might as well bring your pup along with you. They have a lot of energy that they need to get out to and can provide some great companionship!

A fun way to celebrate Earth Day is by getting active out in nature. A way to do this is by going for a bike ride. You’re able to get a nice work out in while being able to observe all the nice scenery around you. If bikes aren’t your style then there are many other options to get out and about today.
You can enjoy the holiday and social distancing by going fishing, kayaking, or even practicing your jump shot, because who doesn’t enjoy some basketball.
