UPDATE: It’s official – Kelly Ann T of Missouri and Ed N of Illinois are our 2 lucky winners! Thanks to everyone for participating, and we hope you all have a good Earth Day everyday. If you didn’t win, don’t despair. Check out our latest Giveaway – we feature goods that we’re passionate about and we’d like you to try them as well — for FREE! (original post follows…)
This is a cool Great Green Giveaway, generously sponsored by Walt Disney Studios. Two lucky readers will be selected at random on Earth Day, April 22, 2010.
Prizes:
Two (2) winners will each receive: a DVD of Disneynature’s record-breaking film, EARTH (which debuted Earth Day, 2009), and the companion book for their latest epic, OCEANS (Earth Day, 2010). Total retail value of each prize is approximately $50 ($29.99 DVD + $19.99 book) plus free shipping to USA only.
Disneynature’s OCEANS is scheduled to make a splash on the big screen, 4/22/10. Featuring spectacular imagery and narrated by Pierce Brosnan, I’m sure it’ll be phenomenal.
Here’s the eco kick — see OCEANS during opening week (April 22-28) and “in honor of each moviegoer, Disneynature, through the Disney Worldwide Conservation Fund, will help establish new marine protected areas in The Bahamas with The Nature Conservancy, one of the largest conservation organizations in the world. These areas will contain miles of vital coral reefs that provide natural habitat, nurseries and feeding grounds for hundreds of marine species.”

Walking. Dolphins.
I love the dolphin, it is not dangerous and is playful and graceful and I love watching them swim and play and jump up and swim in their schools.
I plan on closing on my first house on earth day so if my trees I have ordered come, I will plant at least 1 of them, otherwise, I will plant all 10 in the next 30 days.
I will be commuting to work on the train and cleaning up the Guadalupe river with colleagues during our lunch. One favorite animal? I love hummingbirds.
good luck…….
We will be planting a garden , taking a nature walk and then making crafts out of old materials.
My favorite ocean creature is the manatee.
I’ll attend a few Earth Day events but celebrate Earth Day everyday by doing everything I can to protect the Earth.
I love creatures of the sea, but am in awe of sharks.
we plant a tree on Earth Day. This year it will be a Chilean Fire Tree.
Thanks for the chance.

I will spend Earth Day with The Naturlas landscaping designing a San Francisco Bay friendly California native garden, with drought tolerant plants and plants that provide food and shelter to wildlife.

This will be my son’s second Earth Day–and he’s a ready helper in the garden. That’s the day we’re putting some of our early vegetable seeds in the ground.
His favorite ocean creature is the hammerhead shark. I favor anemones.
I celebrate Earth Day by teaching my students to appreciate diversity and interdependence in our environment. My favorite animal (who happens to live in the ocean) is the otter!
I’ll be picking up trash around my work building. My favorite animal is the dolphin.
I subscribe via google reader.
We’ll be celebrating by digging in the dirt in our garden. My son loves ocean animals – especially killer whales.
I just became a fan on Facebook.
My favorite seas animal are definitely seals! I spend a lot of free time advocating for their safety, especially from the Canadian clubs. I will celebrate Earth Day the way I celebrate every day, with my diet free of anything that harms an animal, & I will of course continue to be a vociferous friend to the animals & the Earth. EVERY day is Earth day!
We’re going to be planting a tree. :) — And my favorite ocean animals are dolphins.

We bought bikes so that we could all ride all over town.
My friends and I are cleaning up the local river. I have to say my favorite ocean animal is the manatee. I’ve swam next to them and it was awesome!
I will plant flowers in my front yard
Dolphins are my fave!

My son is doing a can collection for his school and we are going to the Disney Store to participate in their Friends for Change Program. The ocean is such an amazing place. I love the obviously cute seals and dolphins but find the rays and jellyfish miraculous as well.
I’m going to help my son’s school plant a tree, my favorite ocean species are manatees, thanks!
We are planting 50 evergreen trees. I like whales

I celebrate earth day by trying to change my habits that are bad for the planet and exchange them for ones that are good. I love dolphins.
I plan on planting flowers to celebrate earth day. The dolphin is my favorite.
I’ll go to a park with programs for eARTH DAY with my kids. dolphiins
I’ll be helping with beach clean up, and I love killer whales.
We are going to be planting a Tree for each member of the family… Plus not driving at all that day.. Favorite animal of the ocean is a tough one because I studied to be a Marine Biologist… but the Orca is a top pick
I bought a few seed packets of pretty flowers. Today me and my daughter prepped the “garden” and tomorrow we are going to plant them. And my favorite ocean animal is definitely the killer whale!

We plan on picking up trash in our neighborhood and nearby park. My favorite ocean animal is the dolphin.
We will be planting our garden and going to see Oceans. My 4 year old son cannot chose a favorite between sharks and giant squid. He loves all sea creatures but those are his favorite.
Participating in a neighborhood cleanup the whole week is my earth day celebration. I love dolphins!

I am chairing a meeting tomorrow night and I’m going to open the floor with a discussion on Earth Day and how we can all do our part to leave the world a better place for our children and grandchildren. Every day is Earth Day, and we should all act accordingly.
My favourite worldwide animals are too many to count! Every animal, and living being, is special and important in the great circle of life. From the lowly but plentiful Krill to the huge Whales that feed on them, they’re all equally important. :)
Even though I’m on a disability pension I still give 25 percent of my disability income to groups like World Wildlife Fund, BC Wildlife Fund, Greenpeace, Duck’s Unlimited, the Sea Sheppard Society, etc. I am not physically capable of going out and fighting for those who cannot speak for themselves,, but my dollars can help those who can! Keep up the good fight, world ammbassadors! Your job is important and essential.
I especially love whales, wolves, Kermode Bears, and every other wonderful animal that God put on this earth for us to look after.
We’ll be cleaning up our neighborhood park. I love seals. :)
We plan to do some roadside cleanup
My favorite sea creature is the dolphin.
