While there could be literally hundreds of things you can do to help the Earth, we\u2019ve boiled it down to 10 picks for this year\u2026 things for the health of the planet and you. We invite you to share <em>your<\/em> <em>own<\/em> top 10 in the comments below. (Some of the links to stores are affiliate links, which help raise funds for our nonprofit work. Those links will be noted.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Visit your local farmers market <\/strong>and buy your fruits, vegetables and other foods from local organic farmers. Or join an organic CSA (consumer supported agriculture). Organic farming lessens the synthetic inputs that pollute the environment and is better for your health. And buying from local farmers keeps that money in your community, benefitting your local economy far more than money going to some giant corporation out of your state.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/toxinfreeusa.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Grow_Your_Own_food.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"684\" src=\"https:\/\/toxinfreeusa.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Grow_Your_Own_food.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5824\" srcset=\"https:\/\/toxinfreeusa.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Grow_Your_Own_food-300x205.jpg 300w, https:\/\/toxinfreeusa.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Grow_Your_Own_food-768x525.jpg 768w, https:\/\/toxinfreeusa.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Grow_Your_Own_food.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><strong>Grow your own food.<\/strong> If you have outdoor space, or a window with adequate sunlight, the benefits of growing your own food are numerous: The food you produce is cheaper in the long run and you\u2019ll know for sure where your food comes from and that it was produced organically.

But guess what they use in Teflon now? PTFE. PTFE is a PFAS chemical. That kind of advertising is unconscionable, but not illegal unfortunately. Teflon coated cookware is often tossed away in the garbage, destined for landfills where the chemicals leach and pollute the environment.

There are still details to be worked out about the exact magnitude, but there is no doubt whatsoever that plastic causes disease, disability, premature death, economic damage and damage to ecosystems at every stage of its life cycle. And the life cycle begins with the extraction of the oil, the coal, and the gas that are the building blocks for 98 to 99 percent of plastics,&#8221; said lead author, Dr. Philip J. Landrigan, a pediatrician, epidemiologist and director of Boston College\u2019s Global Public Health Program and Global Observatory on Planetary Health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We recommend filtering your tap water with a system that not only removes pesticides and other toxins, but one that can effectively remove PFAS chemicals.
