Earth Day started in the US but became recognized around the world by 1990.
Every year, men, women and children collect garbage, plant trees, clean up coral reefs, show movies, sign petitions and plan for a better future for our planet.
The UN renamed Earth day in 2009 as International Mother Earth Day.
In 2011, the Earth Day Network planted 28 million trees in Afghanistan.
In Panama, 100 endangered species of orchids were planted and maintained to prevent their extinction in honour of Earth Day.
