Mother Earth’s Birthday Party-Response:
Everyone’s invited. She is celebrating the importance of life through her eyes. It’s the celebration of staying strong for so long, making room for improvements. The environmentalists will be there because they care about the earth and want to keep it healthy. The people who come are the people who want to defend the earth’s beauty. I’m not going to be able to attend; I have already made plans for spring break. This is the 20th anniversary of her birth.

Scientists say that our Earth is 4.5 billion years old. Every year on April 22 we celebrate Earth’s Day to make people understand the problems they are causing to environment. Our Earth is tired of deforestation, oil spills, radiation, and carbon dioxide. The best gift we can make is to take responsibility for our actions, and try to correct our mistakes.

Mother Earth’s Birthday

April 22 is our Mother Earth’s birthday. There are many people already throwing parties around the globe. Every year her party gets bigger and bigger because there are more and more people attending the celebration. There are many ways to celebrate her birthday; for example, some people will go on a picnic, others will clean their home gardens, and some others will replant patches of forests. I think I'll join the group that will clean the beach near my home. But we need more people to give our Mother Earth a make-over and make her look more beautiful than she is. Remember that this year has been difficult for her because many people continue to cut forests, pollute the air, and make noise which makes her grumpy, and when she gets angry she can send earthquakes, floods, or even tornadoes. She needs a break. What if on that day we try to make less trash, or carry our own shopping bags to the store, or ride a bike instead of using our cars, or send donations to those concerned about protecting her? These are not expensive gifts but it’s the thought that counts.

Mother Earths Birthday is a very special day. It's a day to gather arouond and celebrate the environment we live in, and how we thankful we are to her. I believe that for Earth's Birthday, all of the transportation should be free (including gas!) but i know that is not going to happen. we will not truly appreciate Mother Earth until we as human beings are 100% green. Meaning all of our resources should be healthy and safe for the environment. From what i know, Earth's Birthday is celebrated in Downtown Alameda and Berkeley. Many people attend these festivities and enjoy themselves. I myself do not attend these big celebrations because I celebrate Earth Day every day. Every day I appreciate Mother Earth for everything and I am a believe in going green and encourage everyone I know to be green as much as they can!

Earth day is a special celebration that is overlooked. Going green has been popular for a few years now, and doesn't seem to be going anywhere, however, not everyone has gone green just yet. We keep reminding ourselves, on this day each year, that Earth is our home, and in order to inhabit it, we need to be aware of its needs instead of just our own, because we need Earth far more than we let on to. And with the rising gas prices, I think we can all agree that it's time to be a little more wallet and earth-friendly, thus energy alternatives (and fuel alternatives) need to be a REAL option. I feel like our society doesn't take things as seriously as they should when it comes to going green, but maybe one day they will. Everybody is invited to celebrate Earth Day, but the real treat is when you can make Earth Day every day.

Earth's birthday was yesterday, everybody was invited, from mankind to animals. All of us should celebrate this date everyday and appreciate all that earth has given to us and we also should be more aware of issues that threatens it.The solar return runs birthday to birthday with a three month overlap at the beginning and end of each year.

Mother Earth’s Birthday

I've heard of Earth Day when people try to cut back on gas and polluting the air, but I never thought it was called "Mother Earth's Birthday". Yeah they kinda mean the same thing but it seemed weird to me. Anyways, I think we all should try saving our environment. I mean after all without trees and our surroundings we wouldn't be alive. I also believe that all cars should be hybrid so we can save our environment and gas prices. But Earth Day has passed and I enjoyed it while it lasted. Everyone was invited, because after all we live here!So everyone keep our air clean and try your best to recycle. Oh yeah cut back on gas,try catching the bus or bart. I love the earth we live in so lets keep it clean.

Free write-Mother’s Earth Day

As we prepare to celebrate April 22nd, the Earth Day and millions of people around the country take part in events cleaning up litter and streams, fixing park benches and maintaining trails. More people are buying green products, hybrid cars, and renewable energy, recycling more and supporting local produce at farmer's markets, underscoring the public involvement and commitment to environmental protection. People have been influenced by the Earth day that they pick up something and recycle. Just one thing per person will make a difference because a billion other people are doing that same thing.

Mother earth day is on april 22 everyyear, where people celebrate mother earth and public transportation is free to encourage people not to use their cars and pollute gas. Of course I am invited since I use public transportation to get around every day. Our solar system is 4.5 billion years old.

Mother Earth's Birthday Party Freewrite

April 22nd is mother earth’s birthday party. Earth day was started by Gaylord Nelson in April 22nd 1970 were 20 million people participated. Now in 2011 over 175 countries participate and 500 million people. According to geographiest planet earth is 4.5 billion years old. Everyone is invited to the party. I believe the people should celebrate mother earth everyday of the year but unfortunately this is untrue. People around the world need to learn how to take care of our mother earth to make it a better, livable place. We need to stop pollution, nuclear factories, and just trashing the place. Hopefully one day we will learn how take care of our earth like a home, not a house.

Mother Earth’s Birthday Party

The first Earthday was in April 22nd 1970 and it was invente3d by Gaylord Nelson. The first year over 20 million people around the world participated. Today in 2011 over 500 million people participate each year and 175 countries joined together. I believe that mother earths day should be celebrated every day of the year but unfortunately this in un-real. I believe that everyone should learn how to take care of our planet and not fill it up with pollution, nuclear energy and waste. I would hope one day everyone will learn how to teat or planet like a home not a house.

Everyone is invited to Mother Earth's birthday! Earth Day should be every day. Taking care of the Earth is primary purpose of life and should be exercised all the time! I try to recycle when I can, but my most noble contribution to Earth day is riding my bike instead of driving every day. This allows there to be less pollution in the air and takes care of the ozone.

Included on the itinerary is the cleaning up of the community. People of all ages can participate in this event to help better and prepare Mother Earth for the next generations to come so that they may find joy in the beauty of Mother Earth as we do now.
