We’ve been celebrating Earth Day for 50 years, but even the most ardent activists of today would have a hard time picturing the intensity and excitement the first Earth Day in 1970 brought. Before then, no one used the phrase “environmental movement”. But that first Earth Day sparked an unprecedented conversation about pollution, wilderness protection, sprawl, and more. Join Adam Rome, professor of Environment and Sustainability at the University of Buffalo, as he uncovers the motivation for, and the lasting impact of, a national day devoted to environmental awareness.

Rich history with powerful meaning today
Revisado: 05-18-20
Adam Rome does a masterful job of bringing to life one of America’s most impactful moments—Earth Day. Diverse segments of American society came together to insist on the protection of our natural resources and triggered landmark legal protections and the popular modern environmental movement. He brings this story alive by weaving in first-person quotes and rich historical sources drawn from his own original research and scholarship. Importantly, Rome provides insights about this event that have great relevance today as we struggle to address the climate crisis .
