Beginning today through Earth Day, April 22, vote for your favorite Environmentality Art Challenge project, creatively made by Disneyland Resort cast members by repurposing materials. If more than 5,000 votes are received by guests and cast members, the Disneyland Resort will light the more than 10,000 energy-efficient LED lights of the Pixar Pal-A-Round attraction in green on Earth Day.

Guests can vote via this blog post or in-person at Redwood Creek Challenge Trail in Disney California Adventure park, where the top 10 finalists are on display through Earth Day.
