On April 22, 1970, more than 20 million Americans gathered to observe the very first Earth Day. What began as a grassroots effort led by Wisconsin Governor, United States Senator, and Nelson Institute namesake, Gaylord Nelson, has now become a global day of environmental action. Join Nelson’s daughter, Tia Nelson, and Adam Rome, author of The Genius of Earth Day: How a 1970 Teach-In Unexpectedly Made for the First Green Generation, for a look at how Earth Day has impacted our culture and what the success of this initiative can teach us as we address global climate change and growing environmental challenges.
