When Did Earth Day Begin?
What started in 1970 by Senator Nelson in Wisconsin as a way to raise awareness for environmental issues is now a global event that is recognized by 193 countries worldwide. Sparked by an oil spill off the west coast in 1969, the following spring Senator Nelson launched the first Earth Day. More than 20 million Americans across the country joined in the inaugural Earth Day event, drawing attention to critical concerns. Their participation and Senator Nelson's actions paved the way for not only an official Earth Day each year, but also for the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act and other legislation, all with the goal of keeping our environment healthy for generations to come.
Ideas for Celebrating Earth Day
A traditional way to honor Earth Day is to plant a tree, but there are so many other ways to pay tribute to the environment. Get outside and reconnect with nature on a hike or trail ride. Begin a garden and not only grow your own food, but help reduce your carbon footprint. Gather friends and volunteer to clean up trash in your city's parks. Send an Earth Day gift to the conservationists in your life. Looking to make more long-term changes? Set Earth Day as the starting line for environmentally-friendly, lifestyle changes. Institute meatless Mondays into your weekly meals or consider going vegetarian or vegan. Install a timer on your shower to reduce your water usage. Join a climate activist organization and get involved in their initiatives. Big or small, just choosing to do something, in itself, is a beautiful Earth Day gift.
