Earth Day is Monday, April 22! Since 1970, the annual event has brought us together to officially celebrate our home planet and take action to improve and protect the Earth.
If you’d like to explore options to come together with others in your community to celebrate or work in service, check out this handy map of events from earthday.org.
While Earth Day is a great opportunity to inspire collective action, we believe that protecting Earth’s natural resources for future generations requires all hands on deck, every day of the year.
Our ability to eliminate carbon pollution, confront extreme weather, and leave a safer and healthier world for our children and grandchildren depends on just how many of us show up. This Earth Day, the best way to celebrate is by rolling up your sleeves, taking action in your community, and playing your part in the Clean Energy Generation!
Through the Clean Energy Generation movement, we are coming together to create healthier communities and a more secure and sustainable environment. No matter your age, income, zip code, or abilities, you can play a role. You don’t have to have the answers, learning more is a great way to start. Join us, and we’ll share ideas, resources, tools, and practices to show how we can all be part of the transformation, every day of the year.

What do you notice about the shopping bag in the photo?
It has no handles.
That’s right, Albertson’s, with annual revenues of more than $83 billion, has decided to inconvenience its customers, forcing them to wrap both of their arms around their grocery bags to get them into and out of their shopping carts, into and out of their cars, and finally into their homes.
The savings? From what I can learn from AI, the answer is somewhere around $0.12 each. If you’re interested, you can Google: “cost per 1000000 paper grocery bags.”
I understand that grocery stores operate on low margins, but if it were my decision to make, I wouldn’t be deliberately pissing off my customers who are spending $100 for a bag of my groceries in order to save 12 cents.
Yet Albertson’s isn’t unique; in fact, it’s everywhere you go. Look at your cell phone bill and your streaming services. Corporate greed is grinding you into the pavement while it relished in your misery.

What Krishnamurti says at left reminds us of the direction that essentially everything takes in human civilization. What once was pure eventually becomes adulterated and monetized.
The most egregious example of this is how the wealthiest human beings on Earth have decided to ruin the planet with carbon emissions–simply so they can make even more money.
It’s great to see the ongoing protests against the criminality of the Trump administration.
