Earth Day 2021 April 22

March 2nd, 2021

Each day is earth day, but on April 22, it’s time to take a few extra minutes to consider what more you can do.

The theme for Earth Day 2021 is “Restore Our Earth.” Learn more at Earthday.org.

Here are five ways you can do more this Earth Day.

One: Increase your knowledge. Take a clean energy quiz.

Two: Participate in the Great Global Cleanup with a group, on our own, or even while jogging, running or walking. It’s called plogging!

Three: Reduce plastic waste by refilling your own reusable water bottle.

Four: Include pollinator-friendly plants in your garden or balcony pots.

Five: Write to your representative. Find your representative and tell this person how you feel about climate change. Ask for action.

Have fun this Earth Day 2021!
