Save the World Parties

So how did you celebrate 10/ 10/10? If you were like me perhaps 10/10/10 was spent like any other normal day, but if you happen to be one of the highly enlightened people who realized that this is a once in a lifetime event you perhaps spent the day in a far more productive manner. This just happened to be the case for several people who participated in environmental work parties. These parties were part of a worldwide day dedicated to activities reflecting lifestyle choices that center around preserving our world for the next generation. Urban gardeners, farmers, and local food activists joined together to educate and inform the general public as to ways in which each of us can do just that, whether that's supporting local farmers by buying produce from farmers' markets, planting backyard gardens, seed trading, planting trees, composting or all of the afore mentioned. The more than six thousand world wide environmental parties definitely left participants with the feeling that they could indeed make a difference; that like each drop of water that makes up the oceans, each one of us is important in making positive changes that will lead to a healthy and sustainable planet.
