Why do we celebrate Earth Day?

Earth Day is celebrated to raise awareness about the importance of protecting our planet and to inspire action toward environmental conservation. Established in 1970, it serves as a global reminder of the urgent need to address climate change, deforestation, and pollution.

Earth Day encourages meaningful practices by uniting individuals, communities, and organizations, from reducing waste to adopting sustainable energy solutions.

It’s also an opportunity to reflect on how we can create a healthier, more sustainable world for future generations.
