#EarthDayEveryday On The Farm
Today is Earth Day. A time when people are reminded to recycle, plant trees, reduce our carbon footprint, and all in all to respect nature.
In agriculture being good stewards of the land and environment are a must for the continued success of farms and ranches around the globe.
That’s why memes on social media like “Earth Day is everyday” have been trending today and there has even been a popular hashtag – #EarthDayEveryday – to help remind consumers what producers do for the planet.
Here is a sampling of some of the social media posts from farmers, ranchers and agriculture organizations across the world:
