WORLD EARTH DAY 2023

Where Did Earth Day Begin?

In April 22^nd 1970 the First World Earth Day began with Senator Nelson, he had long been concerned about the deteriorating environment in the USA, along with Pete McCloskey they recruited Denis Hayes, a Young activist to help.

In 1990 Earth Day went Global mobilising 200 million people in 141 countries and lifting environmental issues onto the world stage. Earth Day 1990 gave a huge boost to recycling efforts worldwide and helped pave the way for the 1992 United Nations Earth Summit.

Today Earth Day is widely recognised as the largest secure observance in the world, marked by more than a billion people every year.

Earth Day is changing human attitudes about and behaviour toward plastics and reducing plastic pollution.

With a more than ever increased awareness of the environment and the recycling of more and more material it is conceivable that you can get a “green” variation on just about any product, it now makes more sense than ever for you to align your marketing campaigns alongside this occasion, not just on the day but throughout the year with our ever-growing range of environmentally friendly products.

How Can we Change?

So take a look around you as you read this, how many items are around you that are recycled, and how many could be – Do you jot down notes on a Eco Kraft Notebook with a Senator Recycled Ballpen, do you carry your laptop in an Recycled laptop bag or do you use a Travel Mug for your morning coffee. Always on the go, need to charge, do you use a rPEt Powerbank.

Outside of your office or workspace, think about when you go shopping, where do you put your purchases – do you use an Seabrook Recycled Cotton tote Bag or if you are giving them out to your customers with their purchases perhaps you could consider switching to a Kraft paper Goody bag.
