The first event on April 22, 1970 drew 20 million Americans — about 10% of the population — and is credited with launching the US Environmental Protection Agency and the Clean Air Act. Earth Day went global in 1990 and is now coordinated by EarthDay.org.
Tree-planting, beach cleanups, community gardening days, environmental education events, climate change marches. Many cities car-free for the day. Schools host environmental projects.
