Earth Day

FYI, I actually did this before but apparently it got deleted so yah.

This week is based on a question about the Earth :) 
Q: When is Earth Day celebrated? In paying homage to Mother Earth, how do we preserve the sanctity of Earth against pollution and destruction?

Earth,its like a majestic soul.It creates life and things.But humans nowadays tend to destroy mother Earth,such as polluting the nature,destroying natural habitats and even make life extinct.Thats why we need 'Earth Day'.Earth Day is an annual event created to celebrate the planet’s environment and raise public awareness about pollution. The day of this event is on April 22th.So,How can Earth Day help us in preserving the sanctity of Earth against pollution and destruction? During the Earth day,Different types of campaign will be organised,such as 'plant a tree'campaign ,talks and lectures about the the beauty of Earth and so on.Besides that,we could always teach people about our world eventhough its not April 22.For example,teachers can teach the students about the awareness of the Earth and the causes of the pollution  any time,anywhere,anyday.

So,do you know when was the first Earth day?

 The first Earth Day was celebrated in 1970 on college campuses across the U.S. and was the invention of Gaylord Nelson, a former Democratic U.S. senator from Wisconsin whose idea for Earth Day was born out of watching the momentum of the student-led anti-war protests of the 1960s and his frustration with D.C. gridlock over enacting environmental protections. "It was a gamble," Nelson said of the movement. “But it worked."
