| Earth Day 2019 comes amid calls for government action on climate change. |
First held in 1970, Earth Day is credited as helping to launch the modern environmental movement through its mission to “diversify, educate and activate” people across the globe about environmental issues.
The 2019 event follows the release of a landmark report by the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in October, showing time is running out to prevent catastrophic climate change.
