What is World Earth Day?
Earth Day, first held on April 22, 1970, now includes a wide range of events coordinated around the world by EarthDay.org (formerly the Earth Day Network), including 1 billion people in more than 193 countries. The April 22 event was a success and led to Earth Day celebrations in thousands of colleges, universities, schools and communities, making it the second Earth Day celebration. The first Earth Day was celebrated in 1970 when a United States Senator from Wisconsin organized a nationwide rally to raise awareness of environmental issues. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, on the first Earth Day on April 22, 1970, rallies were held in Philadelphia, Chicago, Los Angeles and most other cities in America.
The first Earth Day took place on April 22, 1970, when San Francisco activist John McConnell and Wisconsin Senator Gaylord Nelson separately asked Americans to attend mass gatherings. The first official Earth Day was created in 1970 by U.S. Senator and environmentalist Gaylord Nelson to emphasize the importance of clean air and clean water in the aftermath of the 1969 Santa Barbara, California, oil spill. Today (April 22) is Earth Day, an international event celebrated around the world to support environmental protection around the world. Today, the holiday is not only a day to raise awareness about environmental issues, but it has also become a popular time for many communities to come together to clean up trash, plant trees, or reflect on the beauty of nature.
Although not a national holiday, Earth Day on April 22 every year on April 22 marks the anniversary of the birth of the modern environmental movement in 1970. The National Park Service, John Muir National Historic Site, celebrates or near Earth Day (April 21) every year. , April 22 or 23), named Earth-Birthday, in recognition of Earth Day and the contributions of renowned environmentalist John Muir to the collective consciousness of environmentalism and conservation. International Mother Earth Day also recognizes the collective responsibility, as required by the 1992 Rio Declaration, to promote harmony with nature and the planet in order to achieve a fair balance between the economic, social and environmental needs of present and future generations of mankind. The annual event takes place on April 22 every year, but the entire month, and especially the week leading up to Earth Day (sometimes referred to as Earth Week), is expected to be a time when environmental issues are in the spotlight.
