As you may know, Earth Day was on April 22nd, 2008. Many people took part in the spirit of the day, and became a little bit more 'Earth-friendly'. Here is a little more information on Earth Day:
- Earth Day was founded by the first organizers of it in the year of 1970.
- Along with Earth Day, the Earth Day Network ( EDN ) was also created to become a driving force, spreading environmental awareness around the world.
