I'd like to wish a Happy Earth Day to everyone!

I plan to conduct my usual celebration:
go out in the yard and put poison on the anthills!

(That's been my annual celebration since 1988.)

Just doing my part to improve my little piece of the environment!

Anyone have any other ideas for celebration?

I forgot to include the date!  Here's some info from Wikipedia:

Significance of April 22

Nelson chose the date in order to
maximize participation on college campuses
for what he conceived as an "environmental teach-in".
...
—so he chose Wednesday, April 22.
The day also fell after the anniversary of
the birth of noted conservationist John Muir.
...
Unbeknownst to Nelson, April 22, 1970, was coincidentally
the 100th anniversary of the birth of Vladimir Lenin,
when translated to the Gregorian calendar
(which the Soviets adopted in 1918).

Time reported that some suspected the date was not a coincidence,
but a clue that the event was "a Communist trick",
and quoted a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution
as saying,
"subversive elements plan to make American children
live in an environment that is good for them."

J. Edgar Hoover, director of the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation,
may have found the Lenin connection intriguing;
it was alleged the FBI conducted surveillance
at the 1970 demonstrations.

The idea that the date was chosen to celebrate Lenin's centenary
still persists in some quarters,
an idea borne out by the similarity with
the subbotnik instituted by Lenin in 1920
as days on which people would have to do community service,
which typically consisted in removing rubbish from public property
and collecting recyclable material.

Subbotniks were also imposed on other countries
within the compass of Soviet power,
including Eastern Europe,
and at the height of its power
the Soviet Union established a nationwide subbotnik
to be celebrated on Lenin's birthday, April 22,
which had been proclaimed a national holiday celebrating communism
by Nikita Khrushchev in 1955.

Remember to turn on all your lights to honor the earth for all the treasures it has provided us to have these creature comforts.

Yeah!  Turn on all your lights so you can see the Earth's wonderful bounty!

Rush Limbaugh has urged people to drive their car on Earth Day.
That's a good idea!  Take a nice, long drive in the country
and enjoy seeing the environment!
