Have you ever heard of Earth Day? As a result of the global coronavirus outbreak(冠状病毒爆发), a lot of activities have been stopped, but Earth Day is not one of them.

The story began when astronauts on Spaceship Apollo 8 brought back a photo of the Earth on December 24, 1968. It was the first time people could see our home from space on a photo with full color. Although it showed people how beautiful the Earth was, the photo also reminded us howvenerablethe blue planet could be. Since then, people started to understand that the Earth could be easily broken. The modern environmental movement(运动) started. On April 22, 1970, environmental groups created the first Earth Day. More than 20 million people walked out to streets and talked about how they could protect the Earth.

Coronavirus this year may not allow us to gather(聚集), but it will not keep us silent. Environmental groups have set up a website(http://www. earthday. org) for people who care about the Earth to share their opinions. You can write about anything on the website as long as it can make a difference in making the Earth better. It could be about stopping the overuse(过度使用) of cars, protecting wildlife around the world or just saving drinking water.

With the help of digital medias(电子媒体), the whole world is more connected than ever. Please go to the website and share your ideas. Together, we can take action to change our lives and change our world, not for one day, but forever.
