…And Every Day Should be Earth Day

Filed under: — Mikolaj at analog clock showing 8:07

Google had the Earthday-esque logo today. Hmmm… wasn’t there Earth Day already a month ago? Isn’t it organized at the time of vernal equinox? Well, not exactly. There are actually two Earth Days. One Earth Day in March and that’s the Earth Day which we have in Europe, the other - in April and I suppose this one’s considered Earth Day in USA.

I would have thought that conservationism is a simple thing. Not for the last 35 years, it seems! Every time you tend a flower, think what colors do you stand for! Every time you plant a Larch, mind that there are no enemy trees around! And every time you’re in a forest, kick these bĂȘte noire squirrel foes the hell out!

Whatever the reason, two Earth Days is one too many for the Earths available. Why make do divided by two official Soil Days, when everybody could get a custom-made Earth Day?

And since it is my idea, herewith I proclaim 13.5.2571 MY Earth Day.

PS. The title is from Beavis & Butthead
