21 Apr 2012
On April 22, more than one billion people around the globe will participate in Earth Day 2012 and help Mobilize the Earth. People of all nationalities and backgrounds will voice their appreciation for the planet and demand its protection. Together we will stand united for a sustainable future and call upon individuals, organizations, and governments to do their part. As part of the Earth Day 2012 Campaign we are looking for a billion people to commit to some small or large Acts of Green. As I write this blog the number of those who have committed to make a difference is up to 997,806,501.

You can sign up to make a difference at www.earthday.org/ You can take action in Ireland. In Dublin in the Lighthouse Cinema they will be showing One Day on Earth at 1:00pm Sunday 22nd . This movie creates a picture of humanity by recording a 24-hour period throughout every country in the world. Founded in 2008, One Day on Earth set out to explore our planet’s identity and challenges in an attempt to answer the question: Who are we?
Creation is a living, visible sacrament showing us God’s invisible presence all around us. What is most surprising for me at times is how we can lose sight of this. For a day like this pictures I think speak louder than words.
