Earth Day is a worldwide celebration of the Planet Earth which comes up on April 22nd. Apart from the fact that it is a time celebrate the beauty of this planet, it`s also a period when crucial legislative and social changes came about.
Certain sacred spots with breathtaking monuments often referred to as the 7 wonders of the natural world have been earmarked. The 7 natural wonders according to Cable News Network(CNN) include : the Grand Cayon, the Great Barrier Reef, the Harbor of Rio De Janeiro, Mount Everest, Aurora, Paricutin Volcano, and Victoria Falls.
