Earth Day 2012: How You Can Help Save Our Planet's Resources

It's the Earth's Day today, but it's our moment to look around, breathe our air in a little deeper and hug our trees a little tighter.
It's a day for us to appreciate the unbelievable resources we have and to pledge to do our best to protect the incredible offerings that nature unfailingly provides us.
What will you do to celebrate Earth Day?
Consider partaking in one (or all!) of the five nature-centric activities below that will give you the opportunity to thank the Earth for all that she gives us.

To celebrate the Earth's "deliciousness," The Nature Conservancy, an international conservation nonprofit, is hosting the largest picnic ever by setting up "Picnics for the Planet" events throughout the world.
Plant a Tree
