2011年4月22日是第42個(gè)世界地球日，今年的主題是“珍惜地球資源，轉(zhuǎn)變發(fā)展方式”。環(huán)保組織在地球日官網(wǎng)上發(fā)起了一個(gè)名為“十億個(gè)綠色行動(dòng)”的宣傳活動(dòng)，鼓勵(lì)人們多采用綠色環(huán)保的生活方式，比如：將家中的燈泡換成節(jié)能燈、少用殺蟲劑等。該活動(dòng)發(fā)言人表示，數(shù)百萬人小小的努力加在一起就會(huì)有很大的改觀。自1970年設(shè)立地球日以來，環(huán)保組織已經(jīng)促成了《清潔空氣法》、《凈水法案》以及《瀕危物種法》等法律的頒布。今年，在地球日的發(fā)源地美國以及192個(gè)其他國家，環(huán)保組織都會(huì)舉辦游行、工作坊等各類活動(dòng)宣傳綠色理念。

If the environmental movement has a high holiday, Earth Day is it.

The annual effort to raise public awareness about the environment and inspire actions to clean it up marks its 41st anniversary on Friday, coinciding with the Christian Good Friday and Judaism's celebration of Passover.

In an effort dubbed "A Billion Acts of Green," organizers are encouraging people to observe Earth Day 2011 by pledging online at http://act.earthday.org/ to do something small but sustainable in their own lives to improve the planet's health -- from switching to compact fluorescent light bulbs to reducing the use of pesticides and other toxic chemicals.

"Millions of people doing small, individual acts can add up to real change," said Chad Chitwood, a spokesman for the umbrella group coordinating efforts.

There will be hundreds of rallies, workshops and other events around the United States, where Earth Day was born, and hundreds more overseas, where it is now celebrated in 192 countries.

In the United States the activities range from the premiere of the new film from the director of "Who Killed the Electric Car?" (it's called "Revenge of the Electric Car") at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York to a discussion about creating a green economy in 12 cities along the Gulf Coast, where this time last year residents were reeling from the effects of the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.

In the years since the first Earth Day was celebrated in 1970 the environmentalist movement made great strides with passage of the Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, the Endangered Species Act and other groundbreaking laws.

But the bipartisanship that marked the birth of Earth Day -- it was sponsored in Congress by a Wisconsin Democrat named Gaylord Nelson and a California Republican named Pete McCloskey -- is often missing in discussions about environmental policy today.

Efforts to fight climate change by regulating greenhouse gases, for instance, face fierce resistance from many Republicans and members of the business community, who dispute the science supporting global warming and warn new rules to regulate emissions will kill jobs and raise energy costs.
