Keep your kids home from school on E-day.

The first Earth Day was held in 1970. Senator Gaylord Nelson, Earth Day's founder, endeavored to bring national attention to the cause of improving the environment.

He had 365 days to pick from.

He chose Lenin's birthday.

[MEGoody]

Sounds like a good day to keep your kids out of school for some sort of other educational activity.

Earth Day is Lenin’s birthday.

Coincidence or Communism?

The very first “Earth Day” on Lenin’s 100th birthday? —yeah, it’s a “coincidence”.

Good day to take your kid on a field trip to dump an old sofa up some dirt road.

... kids across the country are about to celebrate a holiday: Earth Day, which is April 22.

Not mine. The town's having a community clean-up and beautification on the 24th, though, and my kids can put on waders and clean trash out of the woods and stream in our subdivision.

We are to be good stewards of the earth and it’s resources.

But sitting in the dark and living in third world or 12th century conditions is not the answer to man’s problems.

Man needs abundant cheap energy. Only through abundant energy has technology progressed. And only through advancing technology will we find the solutions to preserve the environment even as we make life ever more comfortable.

I do remember that Ira Einhorn founded Earth Day. One of my teacher thought he was the greatest thing on earth at the time. I guess him killing his girlfriend and stuffing her in a closet made him fall out of favor with the left.

Last year my g/kid’s school had some kind of after school thing about “environmental concerns” and they brought home a note saying that attendance was mandatory. They did not attend and nothing was ever said about it. I also found out that they were not alone in “opting out”, it wasn’t very well attended at all.

Buy it and show it to kids and adults.

We homeschool but like every group, there are a few wackos. You know, the kind of moms that will tell you how THEIR children eat only organic food and never touch meat, as they wag their leather gloved fingers at you.

Last year for Earth Day, I wrote a thread on our Homeschool Board called, “Happy Lenin’s Birthday!!!” then gave a (FReeper researched) history of Earth Day.

On the board, I was not very popular.
In the Private Mails, I was cheered and applauded.

Research shows that children already have a disproportionate fear of global warming. One study reported that: “Nearly 4 in 5 kids saw global warming as “a very serious problem,” 3 in 4 saw it as “a threat to all life on the planet” and about 2 in 3 felt global warming is “a threat to my future well-being and safety,” and “feel afraid of what might happen.”

I’d like to still purchase this but can’t find it.

What I highlighted is just a trailer clip.

Our band (50’s/60’s rock) has been invited to an Earth Day festival. We will play. But we will also note that we worship the Creator, not creation. We doubt we will be invited back :)

My daughter and son in law treated the grandkids and me to a lunch at the Rain Forest Cafe. As I was standing in line waiting to be seated, the restaurant played a introduction telling children that their environment will be destroyed by the time that they are adults and that only a few survivors will be able to live in National Parks. I was appalled.

I personally celebrated Earth Day by taking my .54 caliber Hawken and firing off a pound or so of black powder. Too bad I had to sell it.
