Every day should be Earth Day, right?
Spring is a season of renewal—a reminder of nature’s beauty, resilience, and the power of regeneration. As flowers bloom and migrating birds return, we are inspired by the changing season. But just as we celebrate spring’s arrival, we must also embrace sustainable habits to protect our environment for future generations.
This Earth Month is a time to reflect on our role in preserving the planet, but it’s also time for vigilance and action. Please take advantage of our community calendar to find an event where you can volunteer and make a difference. Stay tuned for an exciting announcement later this month about big news for our Chesapeake Bay and two dozen new environmental community projects. Take a minute to find out more about National Wasted Food Prevention Week, which highlights the small changes we can make to plan our meals and take advantage of composting.
And don’t forget that this is the third year of the Maryland Climate Teach-In, a weeklong event that empowers young people to address environmental challenges. Students gain the knowledge and skills to shape a greener future through education, discussions, and hands-on initiatives. Governor Moore’s bold climate goals set a strong foundation, but achieving them requires the energy, creativity, and leadership of our youth.
By fostering awareness and innovation, we are preparing the next generation to lead in clean energy, environmental advocacy, and sustainability efforts. The road ahead may be challenging, but with their dedication, we can continue building a cleaner, healthier, and more resilient Maryland.
Let’s keep working together to make this vision a reality
