City Images will not celebrate this Earth Day, but we will meditate and reflect on what 🌏 earthlings have done to our planet.
This #EarthDay 🌎 we invite you to read- We think that it is extremely important to get recharged and inspired. Do you agree that the beauty of our planet is truly a unique blessing?
Earth Day may feature rallies, protests, and other events expected through the weekend. Earth Day's global organizer, EarthDay.org, has given this year's holiday the theme of "Invest In Our Planet," and it will present a live stream of the Earth Day Climate Action Summit today.
This annual observance spotlighting environmental issues comes just weeks after the United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change published a report warning that rapid mitigation measures are needed to avoid unsustainable global warming. Although Earth Day is not a federal holiday in the United States, Americans have observed it for 52 years.
Billions of folks worldwide should mark this earth day by instigating climate policy change and shifting everyday human behavior. POTUS Joe Biden plans to spend Earth Day in Seattle to bolster the nation's resilience in the face of threats like wildfires, and a need to rapidly deploy clean energy.
This Earth Day, Consumer Reports has good news for the planet: Americans are embracing more sustainable actions. 6 out of 10 Americans agree or strongly agree that their actions have a meaningful impact on the environment, and 65% have installed appliances designed to use less water or electricity. https://www.consumerreports.org/media-room/press-releases/2022/04/ameri…

'It seems to me that the natural world is the greatest source of excitement; the greatest source of visual beauty; the greatest source of intellectual interest. It is the greatest source of so much in life that makes life worth living.'
