It's that time of year again! I hope you're already familiar with "Earth Day"!
April 21 is known as Earth Day, a day we're asked to be aware of what we're doing to our Enviroment and to consider healthier options.
It's our philosophy that we should protect the Environment AND our loved ones from Toxic household cleaning chemicals EVERY DAY. I'm a Registered Nurse who has seen first hand the effects of the rising Cancer rates, and the many diseases like Fibromyalgia, CFS, Asthma, and Eczema ... just a few of the many Diseases caused or exacerbated (made worse) by typical household cleaners. It's time we ALL get involved and make a DIFFERENCE!
Here's more on Earth Day...
When is Earth Day celebrated?
Earth Day is celebrated around the world on April 22, although larger events such as festivals and rallies are often organized for the weekends before or after April 22. Many communities also celebrate Earth Week or Earth Month by organizing a series of environmental activities throughout the month of April.
Why Earth Day?
Because it works! Earth Day broadens the base of support for environmental programs, rekindles public commitment and builds community activism around the world through a broad range of events and activities.
What can I do for Earth Day?
Since the first Earth Day, April 22, 1970, Earth Day has been an annual event for people around the world to celebrate the earth and renew our commitment to building a safer, healthier and cleaner world for all of us. There are many ways you can get involved. Volunteer. Go to a festival. Install solar panels on your roof. Organize an event where you live. Change a habit. Help launch a community garden. Communicate your priorities to your elected representatives.
John, you needn't wait for April 22 to take better care of our Earth. Earth Day is EVERY day -- to build a better future for the environment we must commit to protect our environment on a year-round basis.
