Allston and Brighton residents may not have a specific event in honor of Earth Day, but many people say they do something every day to save the Earth.
“I guess my job on Earth Day is to take out the recycling, and I’ve done a pretty good job I think,” said Nick DiGiornio, a Brighton resident who took out a box of empty wine bottles to be recycled at 10 a.m.
Another Brighton resident who had just woken up, Tina Georgieva, took out a stack of magazines and a pack of empty Heineken beer bottles to be recycled.
“Recycling these bottles is the easiest thing to do, I think everyone should do it, not just today but every day,” she said.
Further down in Allston, Jack, a Boston University student who was going into Shaw's, had no idea today was Earth Day, but he promised he would do his part -- even though he said he’s not a big environmentalist.
“I won’t use the plastic bags anymore, how’s that for an environmentalist?” he asked, promising that he would buy reusable totes on his way out.
