Earth Day 2024
Earth Day is celebrated to raise awareness about environmental issues and to
inspire people to take action to protect the planet. It began in 1970 and is now observed annually on April 22nd. Earth Day activities often include tree planting, beach cleanups, recycling drives, and educational programs about conservation and sustainability. The goal is to promote a sense of responsibility and stewardship for the Earth, encouraging individuals and communities to make eco-friendly choices and support efforts to protect the environment. We are all for this and highly encourage our readers to participate in Earth Day 365 days a year! THERE IS NO PLANET B!
