When forests, fields and other green spaces get bulldozed for new construction, we don't just lose pretty spaces, it also reduce food for wildlife. One way to help support wild animals with food and shelter is to plant a native tree in your own backyard. Trees native to your specific growing region help maintain the much-needed biodiversity wild animals need. Not only do they look good and provide shade and value for a home, they also help reduce storm water runoff and remove pollutants from the air. Your local nursery should be able to help you choose a native tree that will work for your backyard.

Many of us know that burning candles made from paraffin waxes can emit soot, smoke and other pollutants into the air. So it may seem natural that burning a different type of candle can improve your indoor air quality. A recent medical study revealed that burning pure beeswax candles not only provides a pleasant honey scent, it also releases negative ions into the air. These help remove pollution like dust, pollen, toxins and smelly odors. This helps purify and clean the air because the negative ions force the pollutants to literally fall to the ground -- making vacuuming even more important.
