Earth Day is an annual event held every year on April 22 to demonstrate support for environmental protection. It is now over 50 years old, as it was first celebrated in 1970!

The date of April 22 was selected because it was convenient for students, the primary target demographic of the original Earth Day, to participate because it was in between Spring Break and Final Exams in the United States.
