Earth Day
So today, April 22nd is World Earth Day. This year is actually the first time that i’d heard of such a day. From what i’ve gathered, it’s a day where you’re encouraged to reflect on the environment and the effect that you have on it, both positively and negatively. You’re also encouraged to make a pledge to be more eco-friendly at http://act.earthday.org/
As this year Earth Day falls on Good Friday most shops are closed/haven’t done much to celebrate it but it’s interesting that in America many companies are encourgaing people to be more eco-friendly. E.g. Starbucks and Caribou are offering free coffee for people who bring in their own mugs, Origins is letting you trade your old cleanser for one of theirs (so they can recycle yours), and Ecotools is letting you send in your old cosmetic brushes for a voucher to try an Ecotools brand alternative, just to name a few.
So it got me thinking, what would you like to see companies in Australia do next year to celebrate World Earth Day?
