Earth Day 2024: Celebrating Mother Earth with Music
There is nothing more precious than our planet. Preserving all the beauty and bounty that Mother Nature gifts us is becoming increasingly important as the years go on. The theme for Earth Day 2024 is Planet vs. Plastic which calls for a 60% reduction in the use of plastics by 2040.
The first Earth Day was in 1970 and was in response to a 3-million-gallon oil spill in Santa Barbara in 1969. The results were devastating to wildlife and demanded a call to action. Since then, there have been many laws put forth like the Clean Air Act, the Endangered Species Act, and the Clean Water Act which have had a positive effect on the environment. New passenger vehicles have about 98-99% less tailpipe emissions than they did in the 1960s.
Every celebration needs a soundtrack! Here is a playlist which features songs with nature and conservation themes:
