This is the first episode where all the main characters appear without speaking since Monster Machine Christmas (not counting Crusher and Pickle). Although Sparkle was excluded.
Despite Stripes, Starla, Zeg, Darington and Watts not speaking in this episode, and Crusher and Pickle having minor roles, this is the first episode in Season 7 where all of the main characters appear.
The Yucky Ducky takes Crusher's place as the antagonist.
This is the second Blaze and the Monster Machines episode of Nickelodeon's "The Fast and the Furriest Month", which features new PAW Patrol and Blaze and the Monster Machines episodes every Friday throughout April.
This episode was the second episode to be played during the Special Mission Blaze marathon.
We don't know if these set of 3 episodes could be part of one whole entirely new episode, but they're all bunched up together.
This is the third episode of the "Special Missions" mini-series.
This is the third episode of the Earth Day. The first two being Recycling Power! when there was a Litter Critter on the loose and he learned how to recycle and The Race Around the Earth when Blaze and Crusher had a race around the Earth.
This is the third time Blaze becomes Special Mission Blaze. The second time being The Baby Robot From Outer Space when Blaze stopped the Baby Robot from turning everyone into babies.
This is the eighth time where someone other than Blaze read the title card, this time, it was the Yucky Ducky herself.
This is one of the many episodes without a STEM song.
This is the first Special Missions episode in which Blaze uses two modes simultaneously for a special mission (at the end of the episode).

The Yucky Ducky crashing into dirty stuff.
Allusions[]
The Trash Smashers are similar to the junkyard robots.
Goofs[]
Despite Watts appearing in this episode at the start, Gabby is already in Blaze's driver's seat despite the fact that Gabby is Watts' driver (not counting Fast Friends).
When AJ says "We made it!" after coming out of the tunnel, the captions say "We did it."
In the scene where the Yucky Ducky says "I've got to stop him from getting to my grossigoo machine.", you can see the lever is clean, but after the Yucky Ducky pulls it, it is shown to be dirty again.
