Held annually during both spring in the northern hemisphere and autumn in the southern hemisphere, Earth Day 2009 marks its 39th year. It's a day designed to inspire awareness and appreciation for the Earth's environment. It's a great time to learn about our planet and be reminded on how we can take care of this 'Big Blue Marble'.
Earth Day 2009 will mark the beginning of "The Green Generation Campaign" which is an ambitious two-year plan to motivate people across the world to reverse environmental decline through a renewed focus on grassroots actions. The aims of The Green Generation Campaign are noble which is to spur the development of a green economy, reduce reliance on fossil fuels and promote ecologically-responsible consumption.
Let's act now and do our part to protect this planet for our future generations before it's too late. Let's unite in this global campaign and start by;- Conserving energy
- Use less water
- Recycle and reuse
- Handle toxic materials efficiently
