The first Earth Day was April 22, 1970, the day the modern
environmental movement was born.
This day is celebrated in more than 175 countries every
year.
There are many songs that are performed on Earth Day.
Ludwig van Beethoven’s “Ode to Joy” melody is already the
official anthem of European Union.
The melody is widely recognized and easily performed, in the
public domain, and originally composed for voice.
Ode to Joy J
Joyful joyful we adore our Earth in all its wonderment
Simple gifts of nature that all join into a paradise
Now we must resolve to protect her
Show her our love throughout all time
With our gentle hand and touch
We make our home a newborn world
Now we must resolve to protect her
Show her our love throughout all time
With our gentle hand and touch
We make our home a newborn world
In the words of Albert Einstein, "Those with the privilege
to know, have a duty to act." So, let's all come together and act, for
"united" we shall stand and "divided" we shall fall. Let us
start doing something towards environment. As we all know that 35 years from
now, we would have a lot of difficulty dealing with shortage of water and a lot
more things.
What did you do today towards the environment??? Think about
it. Everyday must be an Earth Day. J
