Here’s How You Can Celebrate Earth Day 2021

Earth Day is an event that celebrates the need to protect the environment and celebrate the planet. 2020 marked the 50th year of the Earth Day celebrations that began April 22, 1970. Since then, over 193 countries and around one billion people commemorate this event. However, no one will deny that it has been a pretty hard year for mankind. The COVID-19 pandemic wreaked havoc and took in its grasp millions of lives around the world.

Things that seemed normal lifelong aren’t normal anymore. The whole environment has changed. But the situation has started to get better later. Although the pandemic is far from getting over, some vaccines can help people overcome this tough time. The administration under Joe Biden, the current president of the United States, has brought back environmental programs that might turn things around in America. The celebrations of the event in 2021 will be virtual. Below is a list of all those events you can participate in this time.
