Happy Earth Day! ~ It's Been 50 Years! or 50 Billion. But Who's Counting?

I ... I mean "We" ... should be more diligent since the earth is everyone’s home. This means Earth Day should probably be marked on everyone's calendar.

Let’s not even mention Climate Change or Global Warming. My way of participating in Earth Day is to celebrate TREES.

Below are a few links to show my care and concern about planet earth, our home. I can’t really say a lot because science was never my best subject.



The Earth flag is not an official flag, since ...


Indian Banyan Tree And The Pippal Tree

- These trees have cultural significance as they are considered sacred by the Hindus and Buddhists.  The banyan tree is the National Tree of India.  All trees should have cultural significance to everybody.  Next link!


Trees Deserve Respect

- The presence of trees is what separates earth from all the other planets.

Celebrate Earth Day and Help Protect the Planet

- Donate, reuse, and recycle; save energy, and maintain an awareness of environmental needs.  So what if you can’t afford a hybrid car.  You can use a recycle bin and turn off lights!


DON’T KILL RAPTORS!!

- Raptors are birds of prey.  They serve a very important purpose.  They help maintain a balance in our environment.

The Earth flag is not an official flag, since there is no official governing body over Earth. The flag holds a photo transfer of a NASA image of the Earth on a dark blue background. It has been associated with Earth Day. Although the flag was originally copyrighted, a judge ruled that the copyright was invalid. Earth Flag Ltd. v. Alamo Flag Co., 154 F.
