We celebrated Earth Day in my city last week. The idea of this special day began in the 1960s
when life was very different. Few people talked or even thought about the environment. Most people
had no idea how dirty our air and water were. This attitude bothered Gaylord Nelson, who was a

3
senator in the US government, and he had an idea. If people around the world knew that the planet was
in danger, they might work harder to save it, so he just needed to get their attention. The first Earth
Day was just in the United States but it led to events every year all around the world on April 22 or the
nearest weekend, depending on where you are.
In my town, last Saturday afternoon lots of people rode their bikes from the park, around the town
together and back to the park, taking as much time as they possibly could, so that the cars had to wait.
Then we talked to all the drivers in cars which just had one person in them, to explain how wasteful
that is and how much pollution it causes. The idea was to make people think about how much they use
their cars. In other places, people collected plastic bags for a week and then made a pile of them in the
town square. You can do anything as long as it makes people of all ages come together for a few hours
and talk about the environment. Last year we had a big music event for young people. Some people
said it was a waste of time, but there was information for people to read and announcements between
the bands about how to help protect the environment.
