Speaking of Earth Day,
I believe I am part of the Earth Day Generation
We are open minded
and outspoken
The first Earth Day was in 1970 and it soon become a yearly awareness day in the education system from kindergarten through high school. We learned about landfills and rain forests, reducing and recycling, habitats, ecosystems and life cycles. My cousin Kai, who is in sixth grade now, just was telling me about a week long outdoor class he just finished, where they learned about plants, animals, soil and dissolved oxygen.
But we can't take the credit, we have to thank our parent generation, the baby boomers, the hippies. And now they are making room for us in the workforce and discussions and solutions to climate change!
Make a difference
