    Celebrate Earth Day with the man who organized the very first Earth Day in 1970. Learn how it all started and how it's changed over the years. Held at more than 2,000 college campuses nationwide, Earth Day 1970 coincided with and helped to define the birth of the modern environmental movement. Today, Hayes directs the Bullitt Foundation, dedicated to sustainable and innovative development in the northwest U.S. He went back to graduate school after dropping out of Harvard to coordinate Earth Day, earning his law degree and teaching engineering at Stanford. He served as the solar energy director under the Carter administration.
