Got Plans Sunday? How About a Date With Earth

As much as we love to celebrate "days" in this generation, (National Spicy Guacamole Day or National Sibling Day) we have one of the most important ones coming up this Sunday; Earth Day! Earth Day: Sunday, April 22 This is a day set aside to celebrate the planet we all share, a day to clean up our neighborhoods, and one to appreciate what we have all around us. https://twitter.com/Space_Station/status/986644414935248899 Wondering what to do for it? We have some ideas here: Check out the EPA's website (Environmental Protection Agency) by clicking/tapping here. There, you can do a lot from finding events happening in your community to getting school resources for the classroom. Related topic: The history of Earth Day We encourage you to do a quick search of 'Earth Day' in the social media platform of your choice. After just a few minutes of looking, we're sure you'll find some activities, groups, ideas, etc. for Sunday. If anything else, use Earth Day Sunday as a chance to get outside, go for a walk, and enjoy the weather. https://www.facebook.com/nasaearth/photos/a.10150660751157139.441503.57242657138/10156430447277139/?type=3&theater If you do end up going out and partaking in an Earth Day event, we'd love to know about it! Share a picture, video, or comment on our Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram pages by tapping either of those mentioned social media platforms! Your picture/video could even be used right here on WeatherNation TV! One of the "call-to-actions" this year (from EarthDay.org) is "End Plastic Pollution." The website, found here, encourages you to assess how much plastic you consume every year and make a pledge to reduce that amount. Make it a great weekend.
