Q: Start any Timberland cleaning session by brushing off the boot. Start at the top of the ankle and brush back and forth all the way down the whole surface of the boot. If you just have a small amount of debris stuck to your boots, this light brushing will typically remove it. If there are deeper scuffs or lots of debris, you should use the brush to remove as much debris as possible before moving on to other cleaning methods. You can use any clean, soft brush for cleaning your Timberland boots. However, the Timberland company does sell a kit that is made specifically for cleaning Timberland boots. You can also get a brush that is specifically made for brushing suede or nubuck, which is usually called a "suede brush." Use a simple pencil eraser, a generic suede eraser, or a Timberland cleaning bar to remove scuff marks on the surface of the boots. Rub the eraser or cleaning bar lightly over the marks until they disappear. The eraser or cleaning bar can take care of most day-to-day scuffs and light marks. They do not work well for removing ground-in dirt or mud that has covered your whole boot. Once you have erased all marks on the boot, use the brush to smooth out the surface of the nubuck. The brush will also remove any eraser debris that might remain. Move the brush lightly across the surface of the boot, making sure to move it in 1 direction. This will ensure that the surface has a uniform look when you are done cleaning it. Keep your Timberland boots clean by removing dirt once per week. This is especially important if they are worn on a daily basis, as dirt and grime can really build up. With some weekly maintenance you can keep your boots looking fresh and new for a long time.
A: Remove small debris with a soft brush. Remove scuff marks with an eraser. Brush the boot once again. Do spot cleaning on a regular basis.

Article: Measure the length of your old tub faucet with a measuring tape and write it down on a piece of paper. This will help you purchase the same size and style of faucet that you had before. If you are installing a screw-on faucet, there should be threads on the end of your water supply pipe. Wrap 2-3 layers of Teflon tape around these threads to make it easier to screw on the tub faucet. Teflon tape is especially useful if the threads on your water supply pipe are stripped. Screw the new faucet onto the threads to attach it to the water supply pipe. Continue turning it clockwise until the faucet is tightly attached to the pipe. Line up the hole inside of the faucet with the water supply pipe and push the open end of the faucet onto the pipe. Turn the screw on the bottom of the faucet clockwise with an Allen wrench. Continue turning the screw until it's tight. This should secure your faucet in place.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Purchase a faucet that's the same length and style of your old one. Wrap Teflon tape around the water pipe if you're installing a screw-on faucet. Screw a screw-on faucet onto your water supply pipe. Fit the faucet over the pipe if you're using a slip-on faucet. Tighten the screw on the bottom of the slip-on faucet.

Q: Plastic trash often kills birds in the wild, either because they eat it or they become tangled in it. By using less plastic, you can help reduce the dangers to birds in the wild. Simple changes you can make include using reusable cloth grocery bags instead of plastic, and switching to a reusable water bottle instead of drinking bottled water. When you do use plastic items, be sure to recycle them. Over time, this will decrease the amount of new plastic that needs to be produced. Millions of birds are killed by cars every year. Unfortunately, there's no way to completely eliminate the danger posed by vehicles, but there are things you can do to help reduce the risk. When you're driving the speed limit, you may be able to safely slow down or stop, giving the bird time to escape. If you speed, you might not have the reaction time needed to avoid hitting a bird that's standing in the roadway or flying low to the ground. If you're passionate about saving birds, choose a nonprofit conservation organization whose mission you feel passionate about, then donate to that charity. Private donations help these organizations continue to operate, so you'll be doing your part to support their mission. Some of the more well-known nonprofits working to protect birds include the National Audubon Society, the American Bird Conservancy, and Partners in Flight. You may be able to find regional organizations dedicated to protecting birds specific to your area. Local conservation efforts might include protecting nesting areas threatened by urban growth or tracking endangered bird species. Often, conservation programs will have opportunities for people to donate their time to helping protect birds. These might include spending time at a wildlife rehabilitation center or assisting with rescues after a disaster, like helping to clean birds after an oil spill. You can be alerted to volunteer opportunities by following different non-profit organizations on social media or signing up for their emails. If volunteering at a non-profit isn't a good option, or if you're looking for more ways to contribute on your own time, consider becoming a citizen scientist. Many conservation organizations rely on data like bird identification and population counts, and a lot of this information can be tracked simply by watching, classifying, and counting the birds that come to your feeder. You can then upload that information to the appropriate organization. If you can't be physically present to watch the birds, consider setting up a motion-activated game cam instead. For more information about becoming a citizen scientist, check out an organization like the Cornell Lab or Ornithology's Project FeederWatch. You can learn more about Project FeederWatch at https://feederwatch.org/learn/. Some coffee and chocolate farms in Central and South America have started growing their plants in a forest-like environment, rather than clearing out the ground to grow them in full sun. This provides a safe environment for birds that would have been displaced by deforestation. You can help support their efforts by purchasing shade-grown coffee and chocolate whenever you see it. The "shade-grown" designation will typically be clearly stated on the packaging. By maintaining a healthy ecosystem, including a natural habitat for birds, these farms are helping to increase the sustainability of their harvests.
A:
Switch to cloth grocery bags and reusable bottles. Drive the speed limit. Donate to an organization that works to conserve bird populations. Volunteer with a program to have a more hands-on impact. Become a citizen scientist by tracking bird data yourself. Buy shade-grown coffee and chocolate.
