Building the World's Largest Environmental Movement : 22nd April 2016
Earth day Network's mission is to broaden and diversify the Environmental Movement Worldwide and to mobilize it as the most effective vehicle to build a healthy, sustainable Environment, address Climate Change, and protect the Planet for future Generations.
Growing out of the first Earth Day, Earth Day Network is the World's Largest Recruiter to the Environmental Movement, working with more than 50,000 partners in 196 Countries to build Environmental Democracy, we work through a combination of Education, Public Policy, and Consumer Campaigns.
The first Earth Day on April 22 1970, activated 20 millions Americans from all walks of life and is widely credited with launching the modern Environmental Movement. The passage of the Landmark Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, Endangered Species Act and many more other groundbreaking Enironmental Laws soon foliowed. Twenty years later, Earth Day went Global, mobilizing 200 million people in 141 Countries and lifting Environmental Issues onto the World Stage. More than 1 Billion people now participate in Earth Day activites each year, making it the largest Civic observance in the World.
The Movement Continues :
We are now entering the 46th year of a movement that continues to inspire, challange ideas, ignite passion, and motivate people to action.
In 1970, the year of our first Earth Day, the movement gave Voice to an emerging consciousness, channeling human energy towards Environmental Issues. Fortysix years later, we continue to lead with groundbreaking ideas and by the power of our example.
And so it begins, Today. Right here and Right now. Earth Day is more than just a single day - April 22 2016. it's the bigger than attending a rally and taking stand.
This Earth Day and beyond, let's make big stuff happen. Let's plant 7.8 Billion Trees for the Earth. Let's divert from Fossil Fuels and make cities 100% Renewable. Let's take the momentum from the Paris Climate Change Summit and build on it.
Let's start now. And let's not stop.
Earth Day, a Global Environmental Movement for all Earth's Species.
