Earth Day, celebrated in the US on April 22, is a day designed to inspire awareness and appreciation for the Earth's environment. It was founded by U.S. Senator Gaylord Nelson (D-Wisconsin) as an environmental teach-in in 1970 and is celebrated in many countries every year. Actor Leonardo DiCaprio is pretty public about commitment to eco-friendly initiatives and made a documentary about the environment called "The 11th Hour". This movie concerns the environmental crises caused by human actions and shows the last moment when change is possible. The film explores how we’ve arrived at this moment -- how we live, how we impact the earth’s ecosystems, and what we can do to change our course. A must see!
