This passage from ReadWorks will help students understand the meaning of Earth Day and why it is celebrated each year. Each year, Earth Day is celebrated in April. On Earth Day, millions of people will think of ways to stop pollution. They will talk about recycling and planting trees. People will look for ways to save energy and water.
