Just saw this on the Defenders of Wildlife site... a pertinent reminder that we have to do, not just watch.

Here's the link:

Dedicate a Day of Service
to the Earth!

"How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world." - Anne Frank

Pledge a Day of Service to the Earth and walk the walk for wildlife to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Earth Day -- then ask your friends and family to follow your lead…


Spread the word: forward this along to other people who care.

Dear Wildlife Supporter,

The 40th anniversary of Earth Day is almost upon us. As we prepare to celebrate this historic event on April 22nd, I’m reminded of the common goal we all share: to leave a healthy planet behind for generations to come.

That’s why I’m calling on you to use this important milestone as an opportunity to renew your commitment to building a better future by pledging a Day of Service to the Earth and the amazing wildlife it sustains.

Earth Day is a time to walk the walk, not just talk the talk. With species and habitat disappearing at an alarming rate, there’s never been a better time to get out there and get our hands dirty to defend our planet’s wild legacy on the local level.

Walk the walk for wildlife to commemorate Earth Day this year: take the Pledge today.

Whether you pick up trash in a local park, create a haven for wildlife by planting native shrubs in your backyard or get your friends together to restore habitat in a nearby national wildlife refuge or forest, there’s something each of us can do to walk the walk for wildlife in our own communities.

Your actions can make a difference: Pledge a Day of Service to the Earth and the amazing wildlife it sustains -- and ask your loved ones to join you.

Our world isn’t perfect -- and we have our work cut out for us. But the 40th anniversary of Earth Day gives us an unprecedented opportunity to unite in common cause to make a difference -- and give the animals that share our planet hope for a brighter future.

We need your help to defend wildlife -- on the local level and all around the country. This Earth Day, I hope you'll join Defenders in renewing your commitment to the planet and all its creatures -- and ask the people you care about to follow your lead.

Pledge a Day of Service to the Earth today -- then ask five friends to take the Pledge and help us reach our goal of getting 40,000 people to sign on by the 40th anniversary of Earth Day (Thursday, April 22nd).

Thanks for making every day Earth Day by helping to defend our planet and the amazing wildlife it sustains. We only have one world, and we're in this together.


Save something wild,
