Inside: 31 Earth Day acrostic poems to celebrate our home. Let’s treat Earth with care, shall we?
Not too long ago, I went through a major hippie phase, begging the people in my life to care about the environment more, went completely no waste, vegan, and only shopped from thrift stores and certified ethical brands. And you could forget about using beauty products that were tested on animals!
While that’s a phase of the past now for me, I still so deeply care for our planet and try to make choices every day that create a better environment for us now and for the future generations that will come after us.
I love that we have a holiday in order to celebrate the planet that we get to call home, and make it a day to think about all of the different ways that we can be intentional to create a better home.
While many companies and activists are taking huge strides in our culture right now to take better initiative with the environment, there are still little reminders that we can give ourselves to make sure we stay on top of our own responsibilities. While larger entities carry more responsibilities than individuals, it’s still our home too and these little poems about Earth Day and loving our planet are the perfect reminder to take your reusable cup with you or to recycle those cans instead of trashing them.
Let’s work together!
Why Do We Celebrate Earth Day
This is a great question because honestly, we really could just bypass the day completely. But if we’re being totally real, I think we all need a day to be reminded that what we do matters and our actions have consequences. Even on our home planet. If we choose to shop mindfully instead of buying into every single fast fashion trend, or if we choose to reuse cups instead of grabbing a new plastic one every time we take a drink, we’re working towards a cleaner planet and better habits.
A lot of environmentalism really comes from a place of good habits. You don’t have to change every habit you have or your entire lifestyle just to become an “environmentalist” but you do have little things that you can change to become more mindful about your impact on the Earth.
And Earth day every year is a great time to be reminded of what you can be doing to change the tone of the way that you treat the world around you. When we go out and spend time in nature to plant a tree with a local organization or when we even simply read one of these poems as a reminder of how much we should love and appreciate the planet, we are doing good in the world.
Remember, be the change that you want to see in the world!
How To Use These Poems
These poems are perfect to add on to little projects you have around for the Earth Day celebrations and activities you have going on.
Maybe you don’t plan to do anything to commemorate, but you want to post a little something to your social media, this would be perfect! Whether on your story or on your feed, these Earth Day acrostic poems are perfect for sharing online.
If you’re a teacher and plan to take on some projects with your students, introducing these poems are a great example to get them started on their own acrostic poetry journeys as you teach them about Earth Day. Whatever age group, bringing poetry into the mix is always a great way to educate and get students thinking creatively.
And if you’re going above and beyond and hosting an event for Earth Day, even an initiative to go out and plant some trees, flowers, or whatever you have in mind, these poems would make great email reminders, invitations, or thank you cards for attending the event.
Have fun with them and whatever you choose to do with these poems, all you have to do is appreciate them. And the Earth.

Every moment of beauty bestowed upon us;
Nurture a green future for our children and
Try to preserve mother nature’s gift to us all

H-owever, it varies proportionally for equator and polars.

Elements essential for everyone’s every day existence
Amplitude anatomy akin and alien amongst all of us
Reaping reason rampantly relying really in reminiscence
Terrifying terrific turbulent taking tearing talons
Heaving horrible hue of habitual hopscotch humans
