Earth Day is to learn more about protecting our planet and all life on it. It is a day to review what you are doing and see if there is any way you can be a better world citizen and protector of the earth. We need the earth for our survival. We should do what we can to keep our habitat healthy and thriving.
Things like planting trees to help cleanse the air, learning to compost your garbage, cleaning rivers and natural areas from human trash are common group earth day projects.
Every day should be earth day, it should be a way of life. Recycling, replanting, stopping pollution, providing habitat for wildlife and being aware of the things you can do in your own life to make this earth a better place and not do it any harm should always be a consideration.
Living in harmony with nature also nourishes your spirit, and can bring you peace, heal your mind and body. Earth Day is a day to share all this with others. Together we can make this Earth a healthy planet.

I love Earth Day...
At the school my daughter goes i started an environmental club,
The local lumber mill donated enough lodge pole pine trees for all of them, and we talked and celebrated Mother Earth, We also had an Earth Day poster contest..
Its amazing how many kids out there have NO idea what the environment really is..
So i suggest that next year on Earth Day, we all take a moment and think about what life on this planet really means to us...
Its time we started really making an effort it trying to take care of our planet!!

Pick up garbage, plants trees, take lots of stuff to the recycling place. Your are just supposed to be more conscious of the damage that is being done to the Earth and do what you can to make it a better place.
Tree Planting generall is done on Arbor Day, but it's great to do it on Earth Day, too!

You are supposed to clean up local areas and not drive your car because it releases toxins.

Plant a tree. It is the same with Arbor day, by the way.

I think that we're supposed to make mud pies and dirt shakes and serve them to each other with giant self-satisfied smiles plastered on our faces.
Then we're to self-immolate so that we return to dust as our contribution to the planet's well-being.
