How did we start celebrating our planet? When?
Earth Day was a holiday when I was a child, yet no one ever told me then. And many people will go about today without a single thought of it. But, the future generation is always smarter (lets hope) and they're rightfully in love with our big green, blue marble.
Here's a link explaining the origin of Earth Day.
Here's Earth, the Disney movie, trailer. Looks good! Hope some of you get time to see it today.
And here are a few links (if you still need them ;-)
