This year's Earth Day theme is Our power, our planet, calling on everyone to triple their use of clean energy by 2030. Clean energy refers to solar, wind and hydro power. This type of energy contrasts with what is refered to as dirty energy. Dirty energy is derived from fossil fuels, deemed responsible for greenhouse gasses (GHG) causing global warming. Global warming, which in turn, is assumed to promote catastrophic weather events on earth, such as increased floods, tsunamis, tornados, earthquakes etc. (IICAT).
