Earth Day

Earth Day The first Earth Day was on April 22, 1970. It was in the United States. A man named Mr. Nelson started it. He wanted people to take care of the earth. People worked on cleaning the land, water and air. Some people picked up trash. Other people planted trees and flowers. The second Earth Day was on April 22, 1990. This time, people all over the world took part. Now we celebrate Earth Day every year on April 22. People in Australia clean beaches. People in Jordan and Canada plant trees. People in Russia plant gardens. People in Sweden visit farms. On one Earth Day, people in Japan made soap and post-cards out of trash.
