Earth Day was this week on Wednesday the 22nd of April. To me Earth Day is a day to remember to keep our planet clean and nice to live on. It acts as a reminder to people to recycle and do other "green" habits that protect the Earth from pollution. I have not really ever participated in any celebration for Earth Day, however I do remember planting trees with the cub scouts when I was in Elementary School down at the Elementary School near the walking path. Here are some interesting facts about Earth Day:- The first Earth Day was celebrated on April 22, 1970.
- Earth Day originated in the US but became recognized worldwide by 1990.
- On Earth Day 2009, Disney released a documentary film called Earth that followed the migration paths of four animal families.
You can celebrate this day by collecting garbage, planting trees, cleaning up coral reefs, showing movies, signing petitions, and planning for a better future for our planet.
