Unlike Halloween or Thanksgiving, a holiday like Earth Day does not get enough recognition or consideration. You’ll find costumes lined up in the stores months before the October begins and the grocery stores at the end of November are hellish. Yet there remains Earth Day, often forgotten by the public each year. Although many people are not aware of it, Earth Day is a holiday that presents change and offers an actual opportunity for a difference. While it is fun to dress up as ludicrously as possible on October 31, the outcome of the holiday will result in nothing more than several embarrassing photos and candy corn cavities. Earth Day, alternatively, poses the possibility for a greater tomorrow for our planet; something far more dire and significant than trick-or-treating.

What’s especially wonderful about Earth Day is that contributing to the day is simple. This year’s Earth Day theme has been themed, “Mobilize the Earth” and billions of people across the globe are coming together to take environmental action. This Sunday will launch the Billion Acts of Green Campaign. The act is a pledge in which people will promise to take the simple steps to create a greener earth. People can create their own cleaning supplies, unplug their unused electronics, ride a bike while picking up groceries, and shop locally. The list of possibilities seems unending, and each step is so ridiculously easy that everyone can take part and make a difference.
Consideration for our planet should not stop on Earth Day. People unaware of how to help should research the day, learn about how they can help, and continue to take the steps to preserve the earth. Happily, the media is doing its part to spread the word about this often neglected holiday and websites dedicated to the day give helpful information on how to be a part of Earth Day.
