What You Can Do Now - Earth Day Action Steps

Earth Day Action Steps - Wednesday, April 22nd

Environmental Forum

This year we celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Earth Day on Wednesday, April 22nd.

You can celebrate Earth Day in many ways:

1. Sing “I Feel the Earth Move Under My Feet” or another earth-based song.
2. Go for a walk and notice what you see, hear, smell, and feel.
3. Clean out your old toxic household supplies and stock up on non-toxic cleaners.
4. Cook a plant-based dinner.
5. Make cloth grocery bags from some old t-shirts. Patterns can be found online.
6. Write a letter or postcard to your local, state and federal political leaders about an environmental issue.
7. Pick a national or state park you plan to visit this summer.
8. Teach your kids about an endangered species or learn more yourself.
9. Make a pledge to reduce single-use plastics.
10. Check your voter registration status: http://www.nass.org/can-I-vote​
