Mark Earth Day with Proper Boat Care

Happy Earth Day everybody! In light of this eco-conscious day, it’s a good time to assess our own lives and determine what kind of a footprint and impact we’re leaving on our Earth. After all, if we want this planet to still be beautiful for our children, we all need to make changes in our everyday lives. These changes don’t have to extreme, though. They can be something as small as taking shorter showers or walking to the grocery store rather than driving. All of these small changes add up to a big difference.

Another imperative step in the green movement is education. After all, many people simply aren’t aware of how much damage they are inflicting with everyday activities. So make sure you know how to avoid environmental damage whenever possible. This includes when you’re filling or changing your marine engine oil. Learn the proper techniques and steps for changing the oil, and perform regular maintenance checks on your boat or marine vehicle. This will help ensure no excess oil is lost in the water where it can harm animals or water vegetation.
