    It's A Small World: Sustaining Disney Magic Through Conservation

    It's A Small World: Sustaining Disney Magic Through Conservation

    This week just happens to coincide with the holiday that celebrates all things great about our planet. That's right! Monday is Earth Day! So, we thought we'd kick off the festivities with a look at several of the ways Disney helps care for the Earth while ensuring your trip, visit or vacation stay just as magical. We call it It's a Small World: Sustaining Disney Magic Through Conservation. Michelle takes you behind the scenes to explore the many ways our favorite theme parks and cruise lines are working to make the world just a little bit greener.
    Once we complete our look at It's A Small World: Sustaining Disney Magic Through Conservation, it's time for the Disney Stories of the Week. In this episode, we tell you how Disneyland took another big step forward toward expanding its theme park presence. We also share details about a couple of exciting tours that are soon returning to The Happiest Place On Earth. And a Walt Disney World dining establishment received a couple of well-deserved, enormous honors.
    As always, we wrap it all up with tips that might help you on your next vacation.
