We celebrated Earth Day in my city last week. The idea of this special day
began in the 1960s when life was very different. Few people talked, or even

our air and water were. This attitude 2_____________Gaylord Nelson, who was

needed to get their attention. The first Earth Day was just in the United States
but it 3_______________to events every year all around the world on April 22
or the nearest weekend, depending on where you are.
In my town, last Saturday afternoon lots of people rode their bikes from the

is and how much pollution it 4_____________. The idea was to make people
think about how much they use cars. In other places, people collected plastic
bags for a week and then 5______________a pile of them in the town square.
You can do anything as long as it makes people of all ages come together for a
few hours and talk about the environment. Last year we had a big music event
for young people. Some people said it was a waste of time, but there was
information for people to read and announcements between the bands about
how to help protect the environment.
