I’m sure you have a big celebration planned already, but just in case you forgot, Earth Day is Thursday April 22nd. And while climate change is surely the biggest crisis facing the planet, this week, we’re calling attention to another aspect of environmentalism.

This week’s writing prompt allows you to take the word RECYCLE and put it to any use that suits you. Want to write about recycling waste? Go for it. Want to write about friends who come into and out of your life? Knock yourself out. Want to recycle the concept of recycling? Amazing. Can’t wait to read about it.
