Honestly, this Earth Day, I'm sad to say that I did not think about the environment at all, because I was at rehearsal for Cinderella from 12:30 until late at night. I didn't really have much time for contemplation. However, in my daily life, I do try to put in an effort to do my part to help the environment. I try to not be wasteful with things such as water, and recycle as much as I can.
However, I know there are a lot more things I could do to try and leave less of a carbon footprint and promote a green lifestyle. One thing I definitely want to do is join Environmental Club at my school. I have wanted to go to meetings all year, but because of a tutoring program I'm involved in, I have not been able to. However, I plan to join next year for sure, and hopefully attend some meetings this year if I can.
To me, Earth Day (at least in high school) is pretty underrated. We didn't have school that day, but because of PSAE's, not the holiday or for awareness, and we did not talk about it in any of my classes. In fact, I think this blog is the only mention of it at all that I noticed. That's sad, and I really think it would have been good to show these "green" ideas more, and promote environmental protection year round.
