Earth Day is celebrated on April 22nd because it was on that day in 1970 that the first Earth Day event took place. This event, organized by U.S. Senator Gaylord Nelson, aimed to raise awareness about environmental issues and marked the beginning of the modern environmental movement. The date was chosen in part because it fell between college spring break and final exams, allowing for greater student participation. Celebrate Earth Day!
Happy Earth Day!!!!
