Do you reduce, reuse and recycle? Are you planting trees and helping teach your friends and family to do the same? Do you conserve water and electricity? Do you encourage your family to get outdoors and connect with the environment? Act for the Planet, and then tell them about what you’re doing to help make every day Earth Day!
