18 Earth Day Quotes to Honor our Planet

Happy Earth Day! We think Earth Day is one of the more underappreciated holidays. Afterall, what could be more important than the planet we live on that provides our access to water, soil, light, and every ecosystem that keeps us alive? Yeah, it’s kind of a big deal. 

There are so many ways we can celebrate the earth, today and every day, by making healthier choices for ourselves and the planet we live on. Little steps in the right direction make a huge difference! Maybe it’s riding your bike for your next errand instead of driving your car. Planting flowers that attract and encourage pollinators. Supporting a local or regenerative farm instead of  industrial, factory agriculture. Cleaning up trash from a beach, park, or waterway. Or buying a reusable water filter instead of buying single-use plastic bottles. Choosing one way to support our planet and committing to it can make a larger impact than you might think!

There are also lots of official Earth Day events you can take part in around the official holiday on April 22nd! You can find out more about events in your local area on the Earth Day website. 

We think it’s important to keep in mind that the earth keeps us alive and we keep the earth alive. That’s why Earth Day matters! It’s a reminder to all of us to take care of our home, for the good of every living thing. And, while we should care about that every day, having a day where we honor and celebrate our planet is a great way to inspire ourselves and others. 

We’ve come up with some perfect letter board quotes that can be used year round to remind yourself about the importance of caring for the world around us.
