Think about it-- it's this giant ball of life, just floating around in a big black void, containing everything we've ever known.
All of our music, all of our food, our cars, our hobbies-- all of our TV shows, cultures, idols, and religions-- all of our landscapes, inspirations, dreams, friends, and family-- all of our jokes, notes, accessories, and stories-- everything we've ever seen or done or experienced has been on this planet.
This 4.5 billion year old rock has been good to us, giving us air to breathe, water to drink, and habitable climates to live in-- sidling up with organic life in an effort to give us one really cool place to call our own.
It's about time we return the love.
Earth Day is about celebrating the awesomeness of our planet, and working to conserve it-- because Earth is all we've got.
So, from one Earthling to another, let's hug a few trees, clean up our act, and treat our planet to one heck of an awesome day. Turn the lights off, turn the A/C up a few degrees, and go vegetarian a for a few nights each week-- the Earth will love you for it.
Happy Earth Day!
