Earth Day is celebrated every year on 22 April to demonstrate support for environmental protection. Earth Day was celebrated for the first time on 22 April 1970. It is celebrated in 193 countries. It was founded in 1970 by US Senator Gerald Nelson as an environmental educator.
The importance of Earth Day is important because, on this day, we get to know about the impact of global warming on the environment through environmentalists. In September 1969, at a conference in Washington, US Senator Gerald Nelson of Wisconsin announced that there would be a nationwide public demonstration on the environment in the spring of 1970. Senator Nelson proposed the first nationwide environmental protest to link the environment to a national agenda. Renowned film and television actor Eddie Albert played an important role in the making of Earth Day. Especially after 1970, according to a report, Earth Day began to be celebrated on Albert’s birthday on 22 April.
The notion of Earth Day is said to have been initiated by Senator Gerald Nelson after he drove through Santa Barbara, beginning in 1969, just after the horrific oil spill. He was so incensed at seeing that he returned to Washington and on April 22 passed a bill to celebrate Earth Day as a national day.
