People across the continent are broadening the 43nd Earth Day to last 40 days. This year, PACE (The President's Advisory Committee on Ethical Eating) joins forces with the Unitarian Universalist Service Committee to focus on environmental justice and food workers’ rights, particularly the rights of restaurant workers. To honor these workers, we have timed the beginning of our campaign to coincide with International Workers Day on May 1. The official start of 40/40/43 is n May 5th and it extends 40 days to June 13th. The dates are flexible and congregations may decide to participate as part of the Justice Sunday "Choosing Compassionate Consumption" campaign which focuses on protecting the rights of workers in the food system
