Earth Day is coming up soon, and we have plenty of activities to choose from. Earth Day started in the US in 1970, so it is appropriate we now have a dedicated BK green team in the US:Baba's USA Environmental Team has been working on a unified program for April in celebration of Earth Day, which falls on Tuesday, April 22nd. The BK USA Earth Day Theme will be: Caring for the Earth — Spirituality in Action. The message on the flyer: Rekindle your hope and enthusiasm in caring for our planet. There is much to do — and so much we can do to make a positive difference. Join us. Let us imagine, create and act together.Caring for the Earth - Letting go of single use plastics- Watch on youtube, from Meditation Museum, WashingtonBrahma Kumaris Environment Team <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.eco.brahmakumaris.org">www.eco.brahmakumaris.org</a>&nbsp;Earth Day 22nd April<figure class="image image_resized" style="width:75%;"><img src="https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/Greennewsletter_3_1105a20f25.jpg" alt="Greennewsletter-3.jpg" srcset="https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/thumbnail_Greennewsletter_3_1105a20f25.jpg 245w,https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/small_Greennewsletter_3_1105a20f25.jpg 500w,https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/medium_Greennewsletter_3_1105a20f25.jpg 750w,https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/large_Greennewsletter_3_1105a20f25.jpg 1000w," sizes="100vw" width="1000px"></figure>April brings us the joy of spring in many parts of the world. On 22 April, we celebrate Earth Day. This year, the Earth Day Organization has reached out to faith-based organizations to focus on their theme: "Our Power, Our Planet." The BK youth representatives have created a user-friendly toolkit designed to help you organize your events. This toolkit contains various resources in 17 languages: Video msg from Sister Jayanti Video msg from Br Golo Presentation to use for sharing (Brahma Kumaris Milestones in the power sector and also India One Solar Video) Sudoku Puzzle for activity Meditation commentary Videos in 17 Language (as more come in we will keep adding them) Only Audio and Only text script for the meditations for anyone to use it differently and perhaps give live commentary Switch off Meditation "EARTH, please REST!" An easy to fill google form for reporting your events Drive link for meditation resources You may consider conducting a "Switch Off Meditation" titled "Earth, Please REST!" In this meditation, participants will go off-grid, minimizing all external power usage, and instead use their inner power to illuminate the world with love, peace, and truth. We have also included a simple Google form to document each event. Please fill out the form, as we will compile the data to send to the Earth Day Organization. We wish you all the best in your preparations, which we hope will be made easier with the toolkit. Serve Mother Earth, and enjoy your time on April 22nd!Eco Shanti Youth Retreat in Germany<figure class="image image_resized image-style-side" style="width:42.5%;"><img src="https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/Greennewsletter4_42e8e48c6d.jpg" alt="Greennewsletter4.jpg" srcset="https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/thumbnail_Greennewsletter4_42e8e48c6d.jpg 110w,https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/small_Greennewsletter4_42e8e48c6d.jpg 354w,https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/medium_Greennewsletter4_42e8e48c6d.jpg 530w,https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/large_Greennewsletter4_42e8e48c6d.jpg 707w," sizes="100vw" width="707px"></figure>Invitation to an Eco Shanti Retreat, 9-11 May, Moringen, Germany, a unique retreat for young adults.
