    The Green Generation Takes Action!

    After you’ve performed your Act of Green, count yourself among the billion around the globe to join a movement. Then, use your collective force – as members of The Green Generation – to take action around a single platform focused on global warming, renewable energy and a new green economy.

    We will be convening some 500 communities around the world in a Global Day of Conversation on Climate Action. These town-hall style meetings in the U.S. and international cities will involve local citizens, mayors, and community leaders in discussions on climate change.

    In the US, Earth Day Network will also convene its network partners representing key constituencies for a global day of action where people around the world contact their government about the need for solutions to climate change. Earth Day Network will also organize 2,000 campus events around the world - including rallies, tabling, petition signing, and round-table discussions. Can’t come to an event? Let your fingers do the talking: We’ll also be doing a campus sms campaign to get millions of students to “Text for Tomorrow.”

    See website for more information.

    For the 40th anniversary of Earth Day in 2010, the world is in greater peril than ever, but there is also unprecedented opportunity to build a new future. Earth Day has the power to bring about historic advances in climate policy, renewable energy and green jobs and catalyze millions who make personal commitments to sustainability - A Billion Acts of Green – mobilizing the power of people to create change by taking small steps in our homes, our schools and our businesses that add up to an enormous collective action.

    Earth Day 40 is a pivotal opportunity for people, corporations, and governments to join together to create a global green economy. Our coordinated efforts now will be recognized by future generations as a turning point.
