Earth Day THEME |
 |
Earth Day celebrations mixes with a political thought. Proof of the media’s impact on the world today, it was not until the full throttle report put out by the New York Times that the environmental awareness sought by Senator Gaylord Nelson really took on some steam. For seven years prior to the actual Earth Day grassroots movement, Senator Nelson had tried to gain the proper respect and recognition he felt the environment deserved.
Beginning in 1962, Nelson purposed to President Kennedy the idea of a national conservation tour, which was an attempt to bring political attention to the needs of the environment, composed of a five day trek covering eleven states to spread environmental awareness. Although this seemed to be what would break into the public’s attention, it did not. It seemed the people were troubled by the environments degradation but the public policy was not following that concern. Earth Day did not come about until six long years later.
Noticing the interest being captured by the press within the student anti-war movements over the Vietnam War, an idea came to Senator Nelson. Creating an “anti-war movement” but directing the concern to the environment rather than any actual war. The hope was that this demonstration of concern for the environment would generate press and public awareness and in so stimulate the public policy to take action in areas of environmental interest. You can also incorporate an environmental theme into your Veteran‘s Day celebrations to keep up the movement.
Five months prior to the demonstration, the New York Times, ran a lengthy article on the intent of the grassroots movement purposed by Senator Nelson. The response was overwhelmingly supportive of such an expression. Contacts of every kind were coming into the Senators office from every corner of the country. Needless to say, the accumulation of twenty million demonstrators backed by thousands of schools and communities organized and finally grabbed the political attention the environment so rightly deserved. It is this day in history that marked the first Earth Day and is an annual observed holiday on America calendars yet today.

Earth Day Cake Ideas
This should be something that is an every day event, but to put a reminder to people go with a Earth Day theme cake to help them remember. To start off with, select the a cake mix that is boxed in recycled material to help out the environment. Make the cake as per the directions on the box, in this case go with a yellow cake to represent the sun in the sky. Keeping on the same theme, choose a white frosting that by adding blue dye it can be turned into the color of the sky and applied to the cake. Once done with each of the packages the items came in, make sure to set them aside for proper recycling. The cake is in honor of the day and remembering to recycle is just part of the process. Once the cake has been baked and allowed to cool, then it is time for the frosting. Spread the frosting evenly over the cake, then take some green icing and add things to the cake like grass or design an image in icing of Earth itself. Write on the cake a message about the day and remembering to do one’s part to help protect the planet.

Earth Day Party Music Play Lists
Earth Day is a time to honor the sanctity and value of our global home, the planet Earth; on this day people raise their voices in common song, with the help of music that celebrates the planet, its people, and its many bountiful resources.
Any good Earth Day playlist will include both socially conscious and celebratory songs; tunes that will inspire both thought and dance, in equal measure. They could include:
Save the Planet Song by Michael Droste and Jeffrey Walker
God is Green by Damien Horne
Planet Earth by Duran Duran
From a Distance by Bette Midler
Heal the World by Michael Jackson
We Are the World by USA for Africa
Where Have All the Flowers Gone? by Peter, Paul and Mary
Earth Day party supplies make additional nice touches to any environmentally conscious festivity. All tableware should be recyclable, of course, and should come in hues of green and pristine ivory. Globes of rubber and paper mache could hang from the ceiling, and faux or real samplings of flowers and real trees could be placed throughout the party area. Take-home party favors could include plant and tree seeds, as well as small booklets that include practical tips for making the world a better, healthier place.
