Senator Gaylord Nelson founded Earth Day on a simple principle: we don't inherit the earth from our parents, we borrow it from our children. The first Earth Day on April 22, 1970, was a statement of values—a declaration that prosperity means nothing if we destroy the foundation it's built on.
Within months, Earth Day led to the Environmental Protection Agency, the Clean Air Act, and the Clean Water Act. Americans decided that some things matter more than convenience, that leaving a livable world to future generations is a moral obligation.
At {BUSINESS_NAME}, we believe in building for the long term. We serve {CITY} today while thinking about tomorrow. Our values include being good stewards of what we've been given, because what we leave behind matters.
America's 250th celebrates values that extend beyond ourselves.
