Why Earth Day Matters

Earth Day highlights urgent environmental threats, from plastic pollution to climate change, and celebrates global green initiatives.

How It All Started

First celebrated in 1970, Earth Day was co-organised by Denis Hayes and Senator Gaylord Nelson to spark environmental activism across the U.S.

Why April 22?

The date was chosen to fall between Spring Break and final exams to ensure maximum student participation during its first observance.
