International students from Jiangsu University in Zhenjiang, Jiangsu province demonstrated their commitment to improving the environment when they joined local children in creating an environment-themed mural on April 21.
April 22 marks Earth Day, the world's largest environmental movement in which people from across the globe hold various events to end pollution, fight climate change, replant forests, build sustainable communities, create greener schools, and advocate for the protection of the earth.
The day was first observed in 1970 and is now celebrated in more than 193 countries.
