Earth Day 2012 – A Billion Acts of Green – What are You Doing?

Entry #1112, April 22, 2012

Happy Earth Day 2012! This year the Earth Day Network is participating in a One Billion Acts of Green campaign. Everyone across the world can pledge an “act of green” that they are going to do in their local everyday lives.

Join the world in reaching a billion pledges

Acts can range from taking shorter showers to save water or buying local foods to reduce gas and toxic emissions used in transporting and commuting.

Visit Earth Day.org to find more ways to pledge an act of green to reach a billion!
