Ciao lovelies! To begin I’d like to apologize for the lack
of posts last week, I got caught up with exams and final papers. Life in
university sometimes overwhelms me, I apologize. But anyway I’d like to kick off
today’s post! Today’s post is all about Earth Day!
What is Earth Day?
Earth Day is held on April 22nd every year. It is
a day to celebrate planet Earth but also to bring awareness to issues like pollution.
The very first Earth Day was celebrated in 1970. It led to
the creation of the US EPA (Environmental Protection Agency), as well as led to
the creation of the Clean Air and Clean Water acts, and the Endangered Species
act.
On Earth Day every year, “people march, sign petitions, meet
with their elected officials, plant trees, clean up their towns and roads.
Corporations and governments use it to make pledges and announce sustainability
measures.” (According to Earth Day Network).
