Wake up people

It's past the time

To protect the planet

And save humankind

We've gotten spoiled

With all our stuff

Let's take a stand

Enough is enough!

Happy Earth Day! - Limerick

Happy Earth Day!

The Earth is an amazing planet

A home for all life that's on it

But if we abuse it

We will certainly loose it

So protect the planet damn it!

Happy Earth Day! - Shanty Song

EARTH DAY SEA SHANTY
(Verse 1)
Come gather ‘round, ye mates so true,
With hearts as vast as ocean’s blue,
For today we sing, with joy and mirth,
A shanty for our dear old Earth!
(Chorus)
Our Earth, so fair and bright,
A beacon in the darkest night.
With every step, with every sway,
We honor Earth this special day.
(Verse 2)
From mountain peak to valley low,
From rivers wide to fields that grow,
We raise our voices, strong and clear,
To celebrate our home so dear.
(Chorus)
Our Earth, so fair and bright,
A beacon in the darkest night.
With every step, with every sway,
We honor Earth this special day.
(Verse 3)
On Earth Day’s morn, the sun does rise,
Painting hues across the skies.
The birds they sing, the trees they sway,
In homage to this wondrous day.
(Chorus)
Our Earth, so fair and bright,
A beacon in the darkest night.
With every step, with every sway,
We honor Earth this special day.
(Verse 4)
Reduce, reuse, recycle too,
Care for the Earth in all we do,
Ride your bike, plant a tree,
For the future and posterity.
(Chorus)
Our Earth, so fair and bright,
A beacon in the darkest night.
With every step, with every sway,
We honor Earth this special day.
(Outro)
So, raise your voices, raise them high,
For Earth Day’s call, it fills the sky.
With hope and love, we’ll pave the way,
To honor Earth, come what may.

Keep planet Earth clean

It’s the only one we have

It's not Uranus

Treat Earth with respect

Good planets are hard to find

Earth Day - Cherry Trees

Just recently discovered these 100 awesome Shirofugen cherry trees in full bloom on the Clark College campus in Vancouver, WA. The trees were planted on April 11, 1990, in celebration of Arbor Day and Earth Day. John Kageyama, President of America Kotobuki Electronics, Inc., presented the cherry trees to the City of Vancouver to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Washington's statehood.

Earth Day 2020 - Limerick

On this 50th Earth Day occasion

Take time for some celebration

Give thanks to the planet

Don’t take it for granted

And give Earth a standing ovation

Today we celebrate the Earth

And give thanks for all that it’s worth

If not for it

We would not exist

And that would suck way worse

Could be really, really small

If we aren’t careful
