Earth Day

This year on Earth Day I participated in Earth Day Pick Up Day. What Pick Up Day basically is when people come together to clean up their community. For example, they can pick trash in parks, they can help plant a tree, or help on the community garden. What me and my friends did was we vististed two different parks, Proksa and Sunshine Park. We cleaned up any trash at the park and on our way to the park.
Earth Day is important to me because once this planet is gone it's gone. What I mean by this, once our Earth is polluted and filled with trash there is nothing we can do. Every year  the environment is getting worse and worse. Due to global warming, pollution, and littering. So it's important for us to do everything we can to keep our Earth clean and healthy.
It's important for it to be celebrated because then it gets more attention from the people. The more people know about Earth Day and why it's important to the environment, the more they'll be inspired to help. Earth Day is kinda of an advertisement on how people should take care of the environment, and how they shouldn't litter.
Some things we could do to honor Earth Day in the future I suggest we have more events like Pick Up Day but instead of only students it should be everyone. Everyone should come out and help clean up the community. It actually is really fun, especially when you're friends and family.
