Statement of Secretary Kathleen Sebelius on the 40th Anniversary of Earth Day
Thu, 22 Apr 2010 00:01:00 -0500
Billed as a "teach-in" to raise public consciousness about the dangers of pollution, the first Earth Day on April 22, 1970 drew 20 million Americans who wanted to express their concerns about the environment. Four decades later the Earth Day message still resonates across the country, around the world, and here at the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), because public health is inextricably linked to a healthy environment.
