Did you know? Secretary of State John Kerry was 26 years old when he participated in the very first Earth Day at home in Massachusetts in 1970. He said, “It was an eye-opening immersion into the power of grass-roots action to force an issue onto the national radar screen and demand change. More than 20 million Americans — fully one-tenth of our countrys population at the time — came together to express a wake-up call. And they didnt stop there. They elected a Congress that passed the Clean Air Act and the Clean Water Act and the first wave of legislation that set us on a path to change the face of the planet we share with the rest of humanity.”
