History

Jorn McConnell is the founder of Earth Day,

when he first conceived that day,

he thought it has to satisfy two conditions.

1. it must be a meaningful day.

2. it has be to universally accepted by all mankind.

In the end, he chose the day when California was shook by an Earth Tremor.

It turned out to be a day when day and night are equal around the world.

And that it's the day when spring just started.

So it was a meaningful day that could also remind California and the world;

what it would be like if mother earth isnt protected.

Disasters and deaths would be everywhere. It would be common.

And this day, was also a common day with common conditions for the world.

He wanted everyone to "join in peaceful thoughts and prayers to nurture nature"

TODAY, LET'S CELEBRATE EARTH DAY.

LEARN HOW TO APPRECIATE EARTH.

TODAY, LET'S STOP KILLING AND START RECYCLING.

COS EARTH NEEDS OUR PROTECTION.
