hi everyone I'm Alicia Earth Day is a worldwide celebration that started in
the United States in 1970 a u.s. senator named Gaylord Nelson held what is
considered to be the first Earth Day celebration today it's international but
particularly important in the United States it's all about educating people
about and celebrating the importance of the natural environment and working to
preserve it the first Earth Day was tied to a particular environmental disaster
do you know which one it was will show you the answer at the end of this video
Earth Day is a holiday that is designed to be educational but it's a lot of fun
as well when Gaylord Nelson had the first Earth Day it was based on the idea
of an environmental teachin that first holiday attracted over 20 million people
today the holiday has expanded tremendously
it's estimated that across the 175 nations that celebrate Earth Day 500
million people participate in the event Earth Week is an offshoot of the
celebration Earth Day celebrations typically include both events where
people gather in public places engage in games and other diversions and community
service efforts some of the people who go out to celebrate Earth Day attend one
of the many parades that are held to commemorate the day while the first
Earth Day celebrations were considered to be rather political that has faded
over time and today most people just go out and have fun and learn something
about the environment in the United States Earth Day is generally celebrated
in schools and teachers use the occasion to give lessons on environmental science
biology and other relevant topics because Earth Day is so rooted in the
idea of educating people about the environment many of the events are
educational in and of themselves oftentimes large-scale events are held
in parks and other public places that emphasize the importance of keeping
green spaces for everybody to use
Earth Day is on April 22nd in part because for students in college it would
be right between spring break and summer vacation this makes it easier to reach
out to post-secondary students and now here's the answer to the quiz do you
know which environmental disaster is tied to the first Earth Day an oil spill
in Santa Barbara California in 1969 is credited for spurring the first Earth
Day the event was designed to be a grassroots one from the start and
continues on in that tradition today how was this lesson did you learn something
