A senator from Wisconsin, Gaylord Nelson, founded Earth Day. His goal was to force environmental issues onto the national agenda. At first, he called it National Environment Teach-In Day, but his friend, a New York advertising executive suggested "Earth Day," catchy since it rhymes with "birthday," and that's what the press began to call it.
Do something in Gratitude for Mother Nature.
Pick up one piece of litter - like a cup someone has shoved into a plant.
Enjoy the scent and shapes of buds.
Feel the texture of trees.
Plant a bulb or seed.
Sing and twirl with the breeze.
