Happy Earth Day fellow UT Tyler Patriots!
What is Earth Day you say? Earth Day is an annual event that is celebrated on April 22nd to demonstrate support for Mother Earth and her protection! The very first Earth Day occured on April 22 1970. The Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, Endangered Species Act and many other groundbreaking environmental laws soon followed.
More than 1 billion people now participate in Earth Day activities each year, making it the largest civic observance in the world" according to Earth Day Network.
This day was created by senator Gaylord Nelson to make people aware of the importance of keeping our planet healthy and clean. On that day,people made promises to help the environment and make positive changes in the community. And you can do it too!
So go out there and help plant trees,
cut back on shower time
Ride a bike instead!
and don't litter!
