Today is Earth Day, when awareness and appreciation for the Earth’s environment is celebrated across the world. Israel, always at the head of environmental research, will celebrate the occasion with big concert in Tel-Aviv. The Green Prophet, Israel’s only English-language blog about the environment, reported on the event:
On April 23, reports Haaretz, lights out will be the central event, where cities such as Tel Aviv and Jerusalem will turn their lights out from 8 to 9 pm in a bid to raise awareness about energy conservation.
A concert at Rabin Square featuring the Balkan Beat Box and more will celebrate Earth Day, and rumor has it the event will be powered by human cyclists and biodeisel…
The main event of the day …will be nearby at Rabin Square, at the Gat Cinema where the environmental organization Life and Environment will hand out their “Green Globe” awards to people and organizations which have made the biggest contributions to environmental causes in Israel, and in parallel the “Black Globes” will be “awarded” to those who’ve done the most harm.
