It’s coming, plan ahead so you don’t miss the events around town. Officially Earth Day is April 22nd.
I think different states celebrate as early as this weekend and then in our town, San Diego we’ll celebrate on April 19th.
From their website, “Our annual EarthFair is the largest free annual environmental fair in the world. EarthFair 2009 will be our 20th anniversary – the 40th anniversary of Earth Day! Each year, the EarthFair draws around 70,000 visitors.
Produced by 400 volunteers, EarthFair features more than 200 exhibitors, special theme areas, a Food Pavilion, a special Kids’ Activity Area, five entertainment venues, the Children’s Earth Parade (All Species Welcome) and Alternative Fuel Vehicle Parade and Show.”
Doesn’t that sound like something you don’t want to miss!?! Especially if you have kids, can you imagine what an impression it would be on them, and then what an impact it may make on our Mother Earth?!
There are so many events out there. If you have an event and want to spread the word, here’s a good website Earthday.net.
In California, CSPF (California State Parks Foundation) will come together on Earth Day 2009 Restoration & Cleanup Saturday, April 25, 2009. For more information, go calparks.org/programs/earth-day/.
So don’t forget, this day doesn’t come but once a year!
