Celebrate World Earth Day with WD

World Earth Day (April 26) is a celebrated event when people of all nationalities and backgrounds express their appreciation for the planet and support its protection.

Western Digital®, a worldwide storage leader and a leading innovator of eco conscious hard drive solutions, invites all customers of its WD Caviar® Green™ hard drives to recognize the need to preserve and protect the earth’s vital natural resources. We believe that part of being a good corporate citizen and a good neighbor is maintaining or improving the cleanliness of the air, water and land of the locations in which we operate.

In celebration of World Earth Day, WD invites everyone to share their passion for protecting the earth’s natural resources. WD is currently hosting WD World Earth Day Regional Contest, which ends on May 6, 2012, where we encourage eligible participants to share their ideas, innovations and best practices on protecting the planet’s resources and conserving energy, in less than 300 words. Eligible participants who share their conservation ideas, innovations and best practices will have a chance to win a trip for two to South Africa worth up to US$15,000.00 plus US$1,000.00 cash. Please visit http://www.wdthepowerofchoice.com/earth_day/campaign to enter and for terms and conditions of the contest.

In addition, WD is holding Earth Day Redemption Promotions in Australia, Indonesia, New Zealand, Philippines, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam. A free limited edition WD World Earth Day T-shirt will be given to eligible purchasers of WD Caviar Green hard drives (500 GB or above) between April 22 – 28, 2012. End users can redeem the t-shirt via SMS or online. Details for eligibility of the promotion and redemption of the t-shirt can be found at http://www.wdthepowerofchoice.com/earth-day/redemption.
