Every year April 22nd is celebrated as Earth day. It is an annual event which was first announced in the year 1970. Around 193 countries across the world have declared April 22nd as Earth day. On this day awareness programs were conducted by various institutions to create awareness in protecting our environment.

Schools educate the children by conducting Drawing, elocution, and essay competition to encourage the children to be responsible citizens and protect the environment. In one such effort, drawing competition was held in my son's school with the concept "Go Green"
