I don’t know about you but this Earth Day feels different to me, definitely some wind at our backs, and all Environmental efforts for a change.
New projects with big time funding behind it can now be seen in Wind, Solar and Alternative Fuels such as; Bio and Hydrogen. All have taken hold and continue to grow. Now being Green is the Trendy and Right thing to do. Green is the New Black.
Way back in 1989, while attending Pace University in Briarcliff Manor at the time, we celebrated Earth Day. It was the first time they had celebrated Earth Day since 1970. Now Earth Day has grown into an official date on the calendar. The first official “Earth Day” was April 22, 1970. The idea was that of Gaylord Nelson, a US Senator. The official Earth Day date of the United Nations however coincides with the March Equinox, the day the Earth shifts on its Axis and our days become longer.
