On April 22nd 1970 Gary Anderson, a student in America, was creative. He designed the recycling symbol to honour the first Earth Day in 1970. His creativity has changed the world for the better. On April 22nd 2020 – Earth Day (50 years later) World Class Schools invite everyone to #BeCreative and produce whatever creative thing they have done or are doing to keep happy, and to celebrate our shared humanity. Earth Day is about a new way forward for our planet, so what better day on which to #BeCreative? Earth Day is a historic moment when citizens of the world rise up in a united call for creativity, innovation and ambition to solve the world\u2019s problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
