Earth Day was founded on April 22, 1970. It wasn’t until 20 years later that Earth Day went global. It is now observed by nearly 200 countries and has over one billion participants each year.
The Earth Day Network has brought to light environmental issues around the world. It has been acknowledged as a catalyst for many important laws such as the Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, Endangered Species Act, as well as others.
A March for Science will take place this Earth Day, April 22, 2017 in Washington, D.C., with satellite marches in 425 other locations around the globe. Other Earth Day activities include Earth Day United in Copenhagen, Denmark; Earth Expo in Johannesburg, South Africa; Earth Day Tokyo; Empower Earth Day Celebration in London, and several other parades and celebrations throughout the world.
We all dream of owning a high-performance car or at least driving one every now and then or just being able to drive fast enough that we could outrun the police and avoid that speeding ticket (not that we would ever drive that fast). If you have no chance of driving a super car or a muscle car, maybe you should sign up to become a police officer.
In Italy, the police force has been presented with a new Lamborghini Huracan. Its top speed is 200 mph and it goes from 0 to 62 in 3.4 seconds. This is the latest model and second Lambo car that was given to the police. The first one, a 2009 Lamborghini Gallardo, was often used to transport organs to patients or blood supplies to accident sites, and, of course, to chase anybody who tried to outrun the police. That Gallardo, which was driven for 150,000 kms will now go to the police car museum in Rome.
