Earth Day

APRIL 18, 2024—Earth Day, celebrated annually on April 22nd, seeks to highlight and promote efforts dedicated to the protection of the environment and natural resources. It is a day observed by over one billion people around the world in over 193 countries, including Canada!

This year’s theme is “Planet vs. Plastics,” a call for widespread awareness on the health risk of plastics, for rapidly phasing out all single-use plastics and for demanding an end to fast fashion.

Help protect our earth!
