The Yukon Environmental Network wants you to join us in celebrating the 40th Anniversary of Earth Day, April 22, 2010, so we’re inviting you to participate in a friendly Earth Day Challenge.  

We’re challenging Yukon businesses and organizations to commit to selling “green” products and services, and/or to actively “green” their workplaces, or to otherwise give back to the earth in some way, in celebration of Earth Day, 2010.   Become a Corporate Challenger!  All businesses that register for the Earth Day Corporate Challenge will be profiled for the work they do in support a “greener” world, or for the special commitments they can make in the spirit of this Earth Day Challenge. 

But that’s not all…
 
Youth – We’re challenging you to participate in our Earth Day School Challenge.  If you have a great “green” project or message to share with the world – we challenge You to share it with us!  Don’t have a “green” activity in mind?  Don’t worry, we’ve got one for you!  We challenge all classrooms and students to complete the www.climatechangenorth.ca curriculum.  Contact the Northern Climate Exchange to register for this Climate Change Challenge.  All participating students and classrooms will receive an Earth Day Challenge button and certificate.       

Think about what you can do, and what you are doing, for the sake of the planet, and let’s celebrate it together, this Earth Day, 2010.

This is an opportunity to give your “green” initiatives the public recognition they deserve.   Join the Earth Day Challenge today!

Registration begins NOW.    The sooner you register, the sooner we can promote your “green” business projects, on the radio, in the news, and on-line.  Earth Day Challenge ends on Earth Day – April 22, 2010.    To register, complete the information on the attached Form.  Send your information to Tami at earthdayt@gmail.com, or call us for more information at 668-65678. 

* And, if you’re REALLY “GREEN”, you might become a celebrated Earth Day Challenge Champion!

Wishing you a very “green” Earth Day,
