Earth Day is coming to a close, however, this fact does not infer that any actions made towards maintaining as healthful an earth as possible should cease tomorrow. Earth Day is in fact everyday; the 22nd of April simply happens to be internationally recognized. The following link provides information about how you can become more involved with the green movement, this weekend's local (NY) Earth Day events and methods of raising awareness and contributing to the future of our planet.

And here's some Thoreau to really get things going.
"I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practice resignation, unless it was quite necessary. I wanted to live deep and suck all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner, and reduce it to its lowest terms, and, if it proved to be mean, why then to get the whole and genuine meanness of it, and publish its meanness to the world; or if it were sublime, to know it by experience, and be able to give a true account of it in my next excursion." - Henry David Thoreau
