    campaigns.

The event also includes special attractions; such as a [green vehicle runway show](https://greenlivingguy.com/2012/11/electric-vehicle-event-screening-revenge-of-the-electric-car/)
and dedicated areas for kids’ activities.

### Activities for Children

In addition to the main festival, Earth Day New York has expanded its reach. That’s
various events organized by the NYC Parks Department throughout the week.

As Earth Day continues to grow in significance, these events serve as powerful reminders
of our [collective responsibility to protect and preserve](https://greenlivingguy.com/2011/05/3m-films-to-preserve-historic-collection-with-superior-uv-protection/)
our planet. By bringing together diverse voices and offering multiple ways to engage,
Earth Day New York 2014 aims to inspire action and foster a sense of environmental
stewardship among all attendees.
