Happy Earth Week! Earth Day is tomorrow, April 22, and I'm currently busy planning my day and week. There are so many inspiring lectures, events, activities, protests, and educational opportunities that it is hard to pick. But, fear not, as I've selected and narrowed down some of the most impactful ways you can participate in Earth Day and Earth Week.
I got you covered for ways to get in the spirit in the days leading up to Earth Day, including listening music composed based on climate change indicators featuring The ClimateMusic Project along with my favorite podcasts and books relating to climate change. I'll point you in the right direction to brush up on your knowledge, so you can be well informed going into Earth Day with info from United Nations Decade on Biodiversity, Global Goals for Sustainable Development, and IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.
This Earth Day will be a bit different than those of the past, but don't worry as there are plenty of ways to celebrate Earth Day from home. You can still make protest signs for your window, virtually explore National Park Service, NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Earth Day Toolkit - including downloadable posters, and participate in the digital version of World Cleanup Day. I also point you in the direction of calculating and offsetting your carbon intake from the likes of terrapass and Global Footprint Network.
And for the cherry on top, I've listed some of the best virtual conferences, events, protests, summits, and gatherings from the official Earth Day Network EarthX and the American Museum of Natural History, just to name a few.
