International Mother Earth Day - 22nd April
Source: DelAgua Group
Today marks the 45th International Mother Earth Day, held annually to demonstrate support for environmental protection. Many people consider the day as the Modern Environmental Movement.
It was founded in 1970 at a UNESCO conference in San Francisco, as a day to honour the Earth and a concept of peace. It is now celebrated globally in more than 192 countries.
The date was chosen as it is the vernal equinox; the first day of spring in the northern hemisphere and the first day of autumn in the Southern Hemisphere.
Earth Day promotes public awareness of environmental challenges and broadens support for environmental programs and public commitment to sustainability. Although the campaign is only held on one day, it helps increase positive change throughout the year.
Typical ways of observing Earth Day include planting trees, collecting roadside litter, cycling to work instead of driving, participating in programs for recycling and much more. Anyone can get involved and any small act can have a huge beneficial impact.
