Celebrate Earth Day At Disney World Or In Your Home Town
Take the time this Earth Day, April 22, 2012, to think about what you can do to help protect the planet and the environment.
Disney World
If you are fortunate enough to be at the Walt Disney World Resort this weekend travel over to Epcot and enjoy the Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival where you can not only enjoy all of the wonderful flowers and gardens, but learn new gardening techniques that conserve water.
You could also visit Disney's Animal Kingdom. Here spend the time talking to the Cast Members to learn more about the animals and their care or travel to Rafiki's Planet Watch where they have a number of exhibits and programs designed to teach people about preserving the planet and its creatures, large and small.
Disneynature chimpanzee
From your own home town you can go see the newly released Disneynature chimpanzee film. This Disney True Life Adventure takes you to Africa to meet Oscar. It is a story of family bonds and individual triumph.
From the Disney Nature Website:
Disneynature takes moviegoers deep into the forests of Africa with "Chimpanzee," a new True Life Adventure introducing an adorable young chimpanzee named Oscar and his entertaining approach to life in a remarkable story of family bonds and individual triumph. Oscar's playful curiosity and zest for discovery showcase the intelligence and ingenuity of some of the most extraordinary personalities in the animal kingdom.

See African Cats, Save the Savanna!
An epic true story set against the backdrop of one of the wildest places on Earth, “African Cats” captures the real-life love, humor and determination of the majestic kings of the Savanna. Narrated by Oscar®-nominated actor Samuel L. Jackson, the story features Mara, an endearing lion cub who strives to grow up with her mother’s strength, spirit and wisdom; Sita, a fearless cheetah and single mother of five mischievous newborns; and Fang, a proud leader of the pride who must defend his family from a rival lion and his sons. An awe-inspiring adventure blending family bonds with the power and cunning of the wild, “African Cats” leaps into theatres on Earth Day, April 22, 2011.
As the April 22 opening of the awe-inspiring “African Cats” approaches, Disneynature is tapping into the true power of social media by building awareness of its “See ‘African Cats,’ Save the Savanna” program. During the film’s opening week (April 22-28), a portion of the proceeds from that week’s ticket sales will be donated to AWF through the Disney Worldwide Conservation Fund to protect the Amboseli Wildlife Corridor, a passage between the Amboseli, Tsavo West and Chyulu Hills National Parks that is frequently used by lions, cheetahs, elephants, zebras, giraffes and a host of other animals in the African savanna. For more information about the movie and the “See ‘African Cats,’ Save the Savanna” initiative, check out Disney.com/AfricanCats.
