Every year on April 22, the world celebrates Earth Day, and 2021 marks the day’s 51st anniversary. The main goal of Earth Day is to raise awareness of the negative impacts of human actions on the environment.
We recognize that big changes begin at the micro-level. Earth Day is not only an international event, but it’s also about being aware of the effects our actions have on the local environment.
