Earth Day is a time to reflect on our beautiful planet and find ways to preserve its beauty for future generations. Whether you’re a local or a visitor, it’s the perfect opportunity to get involved in local cleanups, support environmental organizations, and make a positive impact on the environment.
Here at Travel Resort Services, we believe in the importance of giving back to the communities and natural landscapes we love, and we’re excited to share how you can celebrate Earth Day!
Get Involved and Make a Difference
One of the best ways to honor Earth Day is by participating in a local cleanup event. There are numerous opportunities in the areas we serve to help make a difference in preserving our environment.
Beach Cleanups
Many coastal destinations organize beach cleanups every year around Earth Day. These events are a great way to spend time outdoors, help beautify the coastline, and ensure that our oceans remain clean and safe for marine life. Don’t forget to bring gloves, sunscreen, and a reusable water bottle!
Park and Trail Cleanups
If you’re near a local park or trail, many communities organize hikes and cleanup walks to remove trash and preserve nature. These cleanups often double as educational opportunities, teaching participants about the importance of conserving green spaces.
Eco-Friendly Organizations
There are a variety of fantastic eco-friendly organizations doing meaningful work that can inspire your Earth Day celebration and beyond. Here are some great organizations to follow that focus on environmental sustainability and community efforts:
Keep Pinellas Beautiful
This long-standing nonprofit is affiliated with Keep America Beautiful and is a driving force behind many of the organized cleanup events in the Pinellas County area. From coastal cleanups and community beautification projects to educational workshops and sustainability fairs, Keep Pinellas Beautiful offers tons of ways to get involved.
Sustainable Urban Agriculture Coalition (SUAC)
SUAC is working to make St. Pete and the surrounding area more self-sufficient, sustainable, and food secure. They support community gardens, composting programs, and urban farming initiatives that educate and empower residents. Earth Day is a great time to check out one of their projects or donate to support their mission.
