What is it and why should we take part?<\/h2>\n

It was 1970<\/strong> when 20 million Americans decided not to put profit before our planet\u2019s health anymore. They took streets, schools, buildings to make the world hear their voice. That\u2019s what we do on Earth Day<\/strong> \u2013 we create a united front to ask for new sustainable ways<\/strong> for our future. We only want more and more people to become aware of how much the environment needs our help now.<\/p>\n

22nd April<\/strong> is not only a day anymore. This movement was not left unheard and really succeeded in many ways through the years. The U.S. approved many laws in regard to the environment protection and health. Also, the EPA \u2013 Environmental Protection Agency \u2013 was founded. One of the most noteworthy actions? The historic Paris Agreement<\/strong> on climate change was signed on Earth Day.<\/p>\n
