  1. 2021 – Here are three fun facts from the Earth Day Wikipedia page:

    The man who coined “Earth Day,” Julian Koenig, was a copywriter who also helped create the iconic “Think Small” campaign for Volkswagen. Koenig said he was inspired because “Earth Day” rhymes with “birthday,” and his birthday is on April 22. He would’ve turned 100 today.
    The first Earth Day, held in 1970, remains the largest single-day protest in human history.
