Earth Day - April 22: A Day to Celebrate Our Planet and Take Action


Earth Day, celebrated every year on April 22, is a global event that highlights the importance of environmental protection and sustainability. The event began in 1970 as a way to raise awareness about the impact of human activities on the environment and to encourage action to address these issues.

Today, Earth Day is celebrated in more than 190 countries, and millions of people participate in various events, including tree-planting, beach cleanups, and other activities that help protect our planet.

The theme for Earth Day 2023 is “Restore Our Earth,” and it focuses on the need for collective action to address environmental challenges, such as climate change, pollution, deforestation, and biodiversity loss.
