Earth Day
April 22 @ 6:00 AM – 11:30 PM
Taking place each year on April 22nd, Earth Day is an annual event celebrated around the world to demonstrate support for environmental protection and climate action.
The idea for the event originates from peace activist John McConnell, who proposed a day to honour the Earth in 1969 at a UNESCO Conference in San Francisco.
Since then, according to the Earth Day Network, “1 billion individuals have been mobilised for the future of the planet and there are more than 75 000 organisations working to drive positive action”.
