National Women's History Project

To celebrate the 41st Anniversary of Earth Day, April 22, 2011, ALL resources in the Science & Math section of the NWHP Webstore will be discounted 20%.

20 million people took part on April 22, 1970 in what American Heritage magazine called Earth Day and described as "one of the most remarkable happenings in the history of democracy." The first Earth Day marked the beginning of a new era in environmental politics, an era that saw the passage of the Clean Water Act, the Clean Air Act, and the Endangered Species Act.

To learn about the work that has been and is being done to protect the environment, we invite you to choose two very different DVD's which tell the stories of two amazingly courageous women whose lives and work, although different, both show a determination to protect the earth:
