Earth Day Slogans Evolve with Each EarthDay Birthday Campaigns

Slogans are phrases that help people key in to the theme and major concept of an organization, candidate, campaign. Sometimes the slogan is called a motto.

These Key Phrases are used repeatedly by supporters to ingrain the message into the media and their audience. It makes the product, candidate, organization or campaign memorable. It's kind of like a 'jingle' that repeats in your head after you sing the notes.

Since I'm active in the Social Traffic Inc. media campaign for EarthDay Birthday coming up April 22, 2009 my awareness of EarthDay and environmentalism has heightened.

I've actually begun turning the lights off in every room of the house when I walk out in order to save a few cents, which I can contribute to a good cause. I personally feel better about myself while saving valuable resources.

Earth Day is a Birthday That We Can All Celebrate.

We all use the G-d given resources of this world. Let's not squander, soil or overuse the soil, air and salty oceans and fresh waterways that nurture and support us. Let's give thanks by preserving and healing what we have damaged. We must clean up our home.

The first EarthDay occured on April 22, 1970. This is the 39 year of our commemoration. How can we make a difference? What kind of creative slogan would summarize where we are in this time-line?

Our youth have many poster contests, writing article assignments and slogan campaigns. Of all people, young people feel the pressure of the limitations and destruction of our natural resources.

• Go back and look over the slogans. They have to be meaningful to everyone. There are a number of them that fall into a sub-category. They may talk about a part of the environment - the trees, water, waste, air, land. They may talk about our habit patterns. They make be action oriented or passive. They could also be geared toward the negative aspect or positive aspect of how we act or the results of our actions.
  
  
• Does it make your Stop and Think? I had to think about "Phone First." What does that mean to me? To change my driving habits. Does it catch your attention?
  
  
• Rhythm: These are all things to think about when making your selection. Does the slogan have a melodious sound. Would you like to hear it said over and over again?
  
  
• Global reach: Does the slogan apply to a large region, countries, people in a meaningful way?
  
  
• Length: Is it short and pithy or will a lengthy phrase do?

Even Grocery Bags! Just look at the Earth Day Groceries Project

Whether they are slick and professional or primitive and childlike, slogans make an impact. The Earth Day Groceries Project is an easy, cost-free environmental awareness project that teams up youth and grocers to spread the message of Earth Day. To participate, teachers simply borrow paper grocery bags from a local grocery store. Students decorate the bags with environmental messages about reuse, recycling, wildlife, etc. The bags are then returned to the grocery store, and on Earth Day, April 22 of each year, customers receive their groceries— along with the message that kids care about our environment— in the decorated bags.
