How will you celebrate Earth Day?

Tourism Vancouver Island wants to know how you are celebrating Earth Day this year! And remember, Earth Day is not necessarily about “global warming” or being “green”. Earth Day is rather a day designed to inspire awareness and appreciation for the Earth’s environment, which of course also is your one and only home planet.

And your Earth Day fact for this year: Earth Day was founded by U.S. Senator Gaylord Nelson on this day in 1970!

So on to the big question…Did you ride your bike to work or school this morning or plan to this week? Did you buy fresh fruits or vegetables from a local farm or market or plan to eat an organic meal tonight? Did you bring in your own coffee mug to Starbucks today to get your free cup of coffee or do you have plans for something BIGGER and GREENER!? Or do you plan to just go outside and take in the natural beauty around you or in a park near you? We want to know!!
