Earth Day 1970 - 2020: 50th Anniversary || Time Will Tell

The first Earth Day was in 1970. A lot has changed since. The past is clear. What will the future look like? It depends on the choices we make today. #StayHome and #LearnWithMe about how Earth is responding to our habits.
Celebrate Earth Day with our curated playlist: • Earth Day

Watch our Climate Change playlist to understand what and how we're learning about anthropogenic climate change: • Climate Change
This year marks the 50th anniversary of Earth Day. In the ensuing years, our population has doubled. We eat more meat, fly more often, use more energy, and produce more stuff. Fortunately, our understanding has also changed. Decades of careful observation have given us a detailed picture of how Earth is responding to our habits. The past is clear. What will the future look like? It depends on the choices we make today.

Thankful the second part of the video was positive/optimistic because the first part almost made me cry. TBH, I still wanna cry. Happy Earth Day!

[@user-cl9kc1iy3z]

Thanks to this video, I realized how serious the earth is.

[@user-uh6cd6cn2x]

I didn't know in detail about Earth Day, but thanks to this video, it seems like a good opportunity to get to know. In the future, I will try to participate in the light-off campaign on April 22nd.

[@user-zo5ky6dl7p]

My teacher shared me this. I hope we can work together to ease global warming as soon as possible. Let’s be an earthman who works together

[@musam5697]

I was condemned to watch this video because of my school, and noticed about the Earth day. I wish many people knew this day!

[@user-kb7kq6gh7z]

This video made me realize the preciousness of the earth.

[@busta8248]

The sad truth is that we digged a hole and we jumped right into it, now we are having a problem getting out it

[@melainewhite6409]

What hole is that? Humans are living longer and more prosperously than ever so I guess this hole is a mound.

[@user-fx8vz6hu5i]

Until watching this video, I was never reminded of my planet, earth, but now I knew about our planet getting sick, so I set my mind on working hard for our planet. therefore, if we know it, we can overcome it

[@SamadKottur]

Amazingly and outstandingly made. Solute

[@user-wc3wl8vs2p]

Wonderful video 😙 Happy Earth Day!

[@e2_2j]

We must cherish and love the Earth for all of us.

I found out that this video is precious to the earth. From now on, I will start with a little practice for the Earth.

[@user-ur7og3ov9s]

The future is ours to create. Happy Earth day!

[@vv-np6jg]

After watching this video, I learned a lot of facts. I will turn off the lights for 10 minutes at 8 p.m. on April 22.

It is beneficial to learn about Earth Day. I'm so happy to be able to save the Earth.

[@user-gt8ni5zv3w]

Now we have to protect the earth! Let's protect the Earth with the little efforts that we can make.

[@ajss_srh5677]

I think most people probably know how to protect the environment. But it is difficult to keep it in modern life. But even if it's not Earth Day, I think we should work together to protect the environment little by little.

[@user-jt5xm9pw6y]

It's a very good video. I need to pay more attention to Earth Day.

[@user-xy8zl7qn8x]

I looked back on my usual behavior. From now on, I will try to be interested in the Earth and make it a better place to live.

[@user-zt5zq3sk8d]

I was so impressed with this video and i think we will do everything we can for the earth

[@user-dp9ui5sz5l]

This video was really impressive, so I'm going to practice turning off the lights for 10 minutes at 8 p.m. this evening.

[@user-ry4ns6ws3b]

The video made me feel that we should strive for the environment from now on

[@user-wx2uj2un7w]

We must pay more attention to our environment and strive to protect our planet....!

I think I've been so indifferent to the Earth until now. From now on, I will practice way to protect our Earth, even from the smallest things.

[@tomaspinguicha9808]

the video is very good reflects very well what is happening on the planet

[@user-gm8fj1yr4t]

Watching this video, I realized a lot about the seriousness of global warming. Also, we knew that we could make the future through our efforts. So I will practice turning off the lights from 8 p.m. to 8:10 p.m. this evening.

[@user-qt4kx2ep3v]

[@jonathanjohnson7508]

Basically it's been 50 years of even more unsustainable practices. So 50th Anniversary Earth Day is just a reminder of how little society has come to fixing any of its problems. Good job us wow.

[@user-ui2kb7fc7r]

I hope this video will inform more people

[@lamiahhasan]

Is no one going to talk about how there so much less air polution now due to us saying inside from covid-19?

[@melainewhite6409]

Citation needed. Saying something doesn't make it real. Regardless, what if any tangible difference is there?

[@lixishere4ever]

Melaine White she meant “staying” idiot

[@leahi.1224]

Yeah I saw specifically how in India, the smog has cleared up so much that there are actually blue instead of gray skies for the first time in a looooong time

[@melainewhite6409]

@Ventitears What was meant was the standard leftist proof by assertion: there has to be so much less air pollution now, just has to be. Could be there is *more* air pollution, people staying inside in different dwellings uses *more* electricity causing *more* pollution.

[@isa-nd2sh]

Ventitears Calm down it’s a typo

We must do our best to revive the environment.

[@user-pi8kh9vs1w]

I found out that there are more resources we use than I expected, and if we use them as we do now, After 50 years, I thought that the temperature of the Earth and our future would be uncertain.

[@tseyang6079]

I will try to learn more about the alternatives that we can take to help our Earth and our people. I will read up on websites that introduce a person to trying out a vegetarian diet.

[@suoiea_]

It was an impressive video. I thought I should be interested in Earth Day and try to stop global warming.

[@user-du1qc8kr6t]

I couldn't turn off the light this year, but I will put it out next year.

[@user-um8lb6wn4c]

This time I practiced turning off the lights on Earth Day. I will do it next year

[@user-jk3oc3eq1c]

I felt sorry for the earth when I saw this vidio. From now on, I will love and cherish the Earth more

[@salin41]

I reflected on myself that I should reduce the use of disposable products. And I will turn off all of lights in my home on April 22nd.

[@user-vq2jo4rs7j]

Happy earth day!

[@adamhenrywalker]

What they don't tell you, is that the impact humans have on the environment is ABSOLUTELY MINUSCULE compared to natural processes. Even if we had zero emissions, the Earth would be the same temperature(or at best, half a Fahrenheit degree less). It's just the natural process of the Earth for its temperature and carbon levels to change. Honestly, it shows just how easy we have it. Our lives are going so great that we can worry about pointless things like global warming. You think people in poor, war-torn countries care about global warming? No! They care about the *real* issues. And it's time we did, too.
