Earth Day is a time to learn, appreciate and celebrate the natural wonders and beauty of St. Andrew Bay. This day we are reminded that we are custodians of these treasures, a nd their preservation depends largely upon what we do as individuals, and how well we make our voices heard by our elected and appointed officials.
"The earth will continue to regenerate its life sources only as long as we and all the peoples of the world do our part to conserve its natural resources. It is a responsibility which every human being shares. Through voluntary action, each of us can join in building a productive land in harmony with nature." --President Gerald Ford, Speech proclaiming the first Earth Day, April 22, 1970. |
