I first celebrated Earth Day in 1970 as a young naval flight officer preparing for my first tour of duty in Southeast Asia during the Vietnam War. It was the first time when we collectively came together to stand united in our commitment to protect our one and only planet.
Now, as a U.S. Senator, Earth Day still serves as a reminder for me to take a pause and celebrate our planet. It’s a day to see how far we’ve come and how much further we can go if we continue to work together.
I'm grateful that we have new leadership in the Senate and White House and cannot wait to build upon the progress of the last 51 years. Happy #EarthDay2021! https://t.co/GFStg8xjx3
To celebrate Earth Day this year, I want to share some of my favorite places in Delaware that remind me of what it is we're fighting for – Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge, Christina River Watershed and Longwood Gardens. I’m lucky to call Delaware home. https://t.co/IJg2LdC4mS
Folks, today is one of my favorite days of the year – #EarthDay! I cannot be more excited to spend today celebrating how far we’ve come to clean our air, land and water over the last 51 years.
This is what bold, effective leadership looks like from @TheWhiteHouse. This is the #AmericanRescuePlan delivering relief to the American people. This is how we end this pandemic for good.

I am heartbroken by this awful news. As a Congress and a nation we are forever are in debt to this fallen officer's service. And as we still learn more about this attack, I am praying for the recovery of the officer still hospitalized.

Exciting news from the @Eagles yesterday that @DelawareFB’s very own Joe Flacco will be returning home to play for the birds. #FlyEaglesFly QT @NFL: Eagles signing QB Joe Flacco. https://t.co/VJlfzddvs3)
Proud to be from the First State every day, but especially today. This news from AstraZeneca fills me with hope. Hope that this pandemic will soon be behind us as we vaccinate more Americans. Bravo Zulu to @AstraZenecaUS's hardworking team on this home run!

Good morning! It’s great day to talk about infrastructure, which means it’s a great day to talk about climate.
We would be lucky to have Katherine Tai, a committed public servant, as our @USTradeRep. She brings decades of trade expertise, years of working in a bipartisan fashion, and as the first woman of color nominated to serve US Trade Rep, she will make history. https://t.co/H3HiG8jk2a
As we grapple with the greatest economic downturn since the Great Depression, Ms. Tai will work with Congress to advance a trade agenda that uplifts American workers, spurs domestic manufacturing, and improves environmental standards around the world. I’m proud to support her.
I'm delighted to hold my first hearing as @EPWCmte Chairman today on investing in our nation's transportation infrastructure. Thank you @GovWhitmer, to @GovLarryHogan, @MayorHancock, & @aashtospeaks President Victoria Sheehan for joining us. ⬇️ QT @EPWCmte: HAPPENING NOW: Chairman @SenatorCarper & @EPWCmte hold our first policy hearing of 117th to explore how we can… https://t.co/WrCDwq3VCF)
RT @kylegriffin1: Sen. Tom Carper has introduced S. 51, The Washington D.C. Admission Act, to make D.C. the 51st state.
Delaware is a state of neighbors, and we will certainly miss @JoeBiden and @JillBiden when they move to the White House. But they’ll always be our neighbors, and we know that they will make the First State – and our country – proud.

I’m determined to set a good example. The vaccine I received today has been tested and proven to be safe and effective. With each vaccination, we’re one step closer to defeating COVID-19, which is why I encourage everyone to get the facts and get vaccinated when it’s available.
It’s hard to imagine a person better prepared for the job of White House Climate Czar than @GinaNRDC. Her extensive knowledge and remarkable experience will be invaluable in this role as the United States transitions to a carbon-free economy. https://t.co/GWdDBzxpeK
Today is the day, Georgia! Early voting has started, and we need your voices now more than ever. There’s no time to waste! Take a plan now: https://t.co/c0F1FRg4mB
