30 Things To Do On Earth Day

As it is Earth Day this Saturday, I wanted to compile a list of activities one can do in order to celebrate that day. Even though Earth Day is just one day of the year, it is still important to take care of the Earth each and every day. Let’s face it, if the Earth dies, we will be in trouble big time. That is why it is important to take care of it while we still can.
