It’s been over 50 years because the first Earth Day, and boy, we actually solved all these issues, huh?

What started as a protest motion demanding sturdy environmental coverage is now only a unhappy, greenwashed shell that provides polluters an opportunity to tweet platitudes and pat themselves on the again for “loving” the Earth (all whereas persevering with to pollute like mad). These classic TV spots might not have saved us from environmental smash, however at the least they’re a nostalgic reminder of a way more optimistic time.
