Today is Arbor Day, a special holiday set aside every year for us to celebrate in the majesty and benefits of trees. This year, Earth Day and Arbor day fall in the same week, inspiring a week-long celebration of the planet Earth. NASA, always looking for clever ways to engage the globe, asked people all over the world to take a selfie, identify where in the world they are and upload it to social media using the hashtag #GlobalSelfie. Just for fun this Friday, let’s take a look at some of the best #GlobalSelfies.
