Every year since the first Earth Day in 1970, communities have organized activities to restore our surroundings and improve our health. Earth Day is a fantastic opportunity to encourage discussion about environmental issues which affect health, both locally and all over the world. To help generate discussion this April, why not try a few ideas from A Community Guide to Environmental Health? If you don't have a copy of the book, you can download the chapters for free at www.hesperian.org.
Which of the following tips did you try? Tell us and send pictures by May 1, 2009 to win a gift of books (worth up to $75.00) sent to health workers in your name, plus your own copy of A Community Guide to Environmental Health or any one of Hesperian's other titles! Send your Earth Day pictures and stories to ingrid@hesperian.org. We'll post the best ones on our site.
