International Mother Earth Day

International Mother Earth Day is an opportunity to highlight the interdependence between people and the astonishing variety of species with which we share this planet.
The UN General Assembly, recognizing that Mother Earth is a common expression for the planet earth in a number of countries and regions, which reflects the interdependence that exists among human beings, other living species and the planet we all inhabit, and noting that Earth Day is observed each year in many countries, decided to designate 22 April as International Mother Earth Day in 2009, with resolution A/RES/63/278.
