I really don't feel like getting into it right now. But at least notice how they use things like "Earth Day" to take away the significance and to counter the holiday of Easter. This has actually happened many times in the past as certain holidays are first co-opted and then completely changed in a matter of years. This is what they are trying to do now with easter.
Remember that whether you believe in anything or not, Easter is more than just bunnies and chocolate and egg hunting. Happy Good Friday. Ready about Easter on wikipedia.

Now about Earth Day. The best thing you can do right now to celebrate earth has nothing to do with driving less or turning your lights off for an hour. Go outside, get your hands dirty, and plant a garden. You won't really save much money, but it's a good way to pass the time and your produce will be higher quality. I like to try heirloom seeds and stuff you can't normally buy at the store. You can grow things from the grocery store too. Things I've been successful with are strawberry seeds, peppers (all kinds), tomatoes, garlic, ginger, potatoes. Don't forget a fence to keep out dogs and rabbits.
