Earth Day was created in 1970 by Wisconsin Senator Gaylord Nelson as a way to bring attention to the need to preserve the environment. It is officially celebrated on April 22, but should be observed all year round.

There's a lot of good ideas on here. I hope you get a chance to read other people's responses to give you more ideas. Choose a few and when you've got those mastered, choose a few more. Start little, then grow your conservation efforts.
I also hope you do these things year round, not just on Earth Day!
