The very first Earth Day celebration was held on April 22, 1970. The event taught the importance of environmental issues as a concern for all communities as well as an international political priority. Earth Day marked a turning point in the lives of everyone participating and they could no longer just blindly consume without thinking about where things come from and the impact they have on the earth each and every day with their actions.

In the months following that first grassroots event celebrating Earth Day, the Endangered Species Act, the Clean Air Act, the Safe Drinking Water Act and dozens of other pieces of legislation have been passed. When Earth Day went global in 1990 as an international event, the rest of the world embraced it with the same enthusiasm as Americans did in 1970.

On April 21, 2012, the Earth Day Music Festival will take place at Grand Park in The Market Common, Myrtle Beach.
