 Earth Day is an
annual event celebrated on April 22. Worldwide, various
events are held to demonstrate support for environmental
protection. First celebrated in 1970, Earth Day now
includes events in more than 193 countries which are now
coordinated globally by the Earth Day Network.
On Earth Day 2016, the landmark Paris Agreement was
signed by the United States, China, and some 120 other
countries. This signing satisfied a key requirement for
the entry into force of the historic draft climate
protection treaty adopted by consensus of the 195
nations present at the 2015 United Nations Climate
Change Conference in Paris.

 Independence Day
(colloquial: the Fourth of July) is a federal holiday in
the United States commemorating the Declaration of
Independence of the United States on July 4, 1776. The
Continental Congress declared that the thirteen American
colonies were no longer subject (and subordinate) to the
monarch of Britain and were now united, free, and
independent states. The Congress had voted to declare
independence two days earlier, on July 2, but it was not
declared until July 4.
Independence Day is commonly associated with fireworks,
parades, barbecues, carnivals, fairs, picnics, concerts,
baseball games, family reunions, and political speeches
and ceremonies, in addition to various other public and
private events celebrating the history, government, and
traditions of the United States. Independence Day is the
National Day of the United States.
