World Earth Day
A dry section of Lake Chalco-Xico is seen in the State of Mexico. Today, on World Earth Day, people are commemorating the occasion which dates back to 2009 when the United Nations declared April 22 as World Mother Earth Day. The origins of this celebration trace back to 1970 when 20 million Americans started demonstrating for a healthy and sustainable environment. (Photo by Gerardo Vieyra/NurPhoto)
