Giving the EarthE Kiss, Handshake, Hug, Dance, Cartwheel and Bellywave are all superb ways to honor friends and others for their eco actions. To do the EarthE Dance, twist (or swing or waltz) for or with a friend along the border of an area on the ground that represents the approximate area of the habitat saved by that friend's environmental action. Add your EarthE Dance ideas and videos to our Facebook. Use the cool tools at ecofx.org to find out how to quickly estimate the area of the habitat saved by a friend's (or your) environmental actions or eco choices. To give a EarthE Kiss to someone for helping protect our environment, draw a big circle in the air with your arms and hands to symbolize the Earth. Then give them a kiss - or blow them a kiss - through the circle. When giving the EarthE Kiss (or any other EarthEs), you may want to say, "This EarthE is from me and a hundred other lifeforms that would like to thankyou for your action to protect our biosphere!" Kiss EarthE every day. <3 <3 The EarthE Handshake is a superb way to thank others for their enviro choices. To give the ritzy EarthE Handshake, open your fingers wide as you offer to shake a person's hand in the normal position. Ask the person to open their fingers in the same way. Then interlace your and the other person's fingers as you shake their hand. It's nice that while giving the handshake, that both people envision a little journey into the future to see an ecosystem, a person(s) and/or animal(s) that is having a groovy time because of an eco action that one or both of the huggers have taken. Interlacing the 4 fingers symbolizes Team, Art, Logic and Love which are the four basic ways we can each help protect the planet -- as based on the XO Earth Pledge. Shake EarthE -- for the life. 
To give an EarthE Hug make a circle over your head with your arms, hands touching. Then move the circle over a friend's head and then further down around their body. Then give them a cuddly hug from you and the planet. Then come out of the EarthE hug in reverse, without letting your hands separate. If your friend wants to make the circle at the same time, that's even more fun.As with any EarthE Honor, it's rad that while giving the EarthE hug, that both people envision a little journey into the future to see an ecosystem, a person(s) and/or animal(s) that is having a good life because of an eco action that one or both of the huggers have taken. The EarthE Three Fingers E is given by making an *E* with three fingers - like the peace symbol plus the ring ringer. One way to use the Three Fingers E goes like this. When a person takes an eco action you can say, "thank you from my future self (or some other person or animal species) for taking that eco action". Then raise your Three Fingers E to your heart and say, "and from our sweet planet Earth". Then, move your hand away from your heart, flowing the Three Fingers E towards the person. So give people the Three Fingers E for being kind to the planet. The Three Fingers E might be called an "EarthE mudra". The EarthE Cartwheel is a real cartwheel (gymnastic style) given to a person for their green deeds. Another version is the finger cartwheel which can be done by "cartwheeling" four fingers on an outstretched arm. The EarthE Bellywave is done by pulling up your shirt, and then wave your belly muscles to friends for being awesome to the biosphere. Now even your navel can help save our blue orb. The EarthE Hand Globe is given by making a *finger Earth* made by putting all the finger tips together to make a globe shape. The stretched apart fingers represent the longitude / longitudinal lines. Rotate the hands so it represents a spinning Earth. So "give people the finger earth" for being kind to the planet. The *finger Earth* might be seen as another "EarthE mudra". The EarthE Wink is given by making a little circle with your hands in front of one eye. Then wink... yes, eco sweet rules. The fancy way is to wink through a *hand Earth* made by putting all the finger tips together to make a globe shape. The fingers represent the longitude lines.
