Earth Day is a special celebration that invites people all over the world to reflect on and honor the beautiful bounty and delicate balance that surrounds us.

On this day, there are so many ways to give back to the environment and help improve the world we live in. Los Angeles loves Mother Nature, and we found more than a few ways to mark the occasion and make the most of this year's Earth Day, from public art projects to film festivals, group clean-ups, terrarium building and more.

Venice Beach is an eccentric spot with lively people, but the high volume of people constantly visiting the iconic beach leave a whole lot of litter. To help make an impact in your community, join the Ecological Servants Project and participate in the group litter cleanup on the beach and pier. The meetup goes down April 22 from 1:30 to 3:30 pm at the lifeguard operation tower. Make sure you get there on time!
