history.

Earth Day of April 22, 1970 saw the birth of the modern environmental movement in America. The founder of Earth Day, Gaylord Nelson, then un senador por Wisconsin, recuerda su motivación para proponer la primera protesta medioambiental a nivel nacional: El objetivo era organizar una demostración nacional de preocupación por el medio ambiente tan grande que conmocionaría el establishment político y forzaría que el problema fuera incluido en la agenda nacional.

El Día de la Tierra lo cambió todo. El 22 de abril de 1970, 20 millones de estadounidenses tomaron las calles, parques y auditorios para manifestarse en nombre de un medio ambiente sano y sostenible. Dennis Hayes, el coordinador nacional, y su joven plantilla organizaron reuniones masivas de costa a costa. En 1990, Earth Day went global, with the participation of 200 million people in 141 countries. Thousands of activities took place throughout the world, including demonstrations, tree plantings, and other environmental fairs.
