Earth Day
Seen as the founding date of the contemporary Environmental Movement, Earth Day started in 1970, inspired by the NASA phot of Earth from space, and Rachel Carson's expose of the adverse effects of pesticides on the air and water and on plant, animal, and avian life in Silent Spring. Find out more about the history of the day and its influences in the Film 'Earth Rise', and the article 'What Difference does a Day Make' @emergencemagazine.
