Earth Day is celebrated every year on April 22.
The first Earth Day celebration was in 1970, and was organized by the United States Senator from Wisconsin named Gaylord Nelson to bring political attention to all Americans about how the earth was being neglected by trash and waste of water, electricity and natural resources, like gas. He noticed that there was a lot of pollution and waste in the United States, and believed that if enough people wanted to change the bad habits of turning the Earth into a garbage pile and making all the water dirty, then they could do it one person at a time. Now Earth Day is celebrated all over the world by many countries.

Can I do something to help the planet on Earth Day?
Of course you can! Everything you do to
help the planet counts, whether you walk to school or help to clean up
litter from your neighborhood park! The most important thing to remember
is that Earth Day should be every day!
