After a year when most of us have been confined to our homes, Earth Day becomes even more special. Nature has provided a welcome source of comfort over the past year, and an escape from our homes that have also become our offices, our study spaces, and our classrooms. The Earth deserves to be celebrated every day, but this Earth Day, spring is in the air and vaccinations are in full swing, so there is no excuse not to explore the outdoors and take in some of the beautiful views that Long Beach has to offer.
Being out in nature is energizing, and something as simple as taking a moment to appreciate a flower can replenish the spirit, something we could all use.
