The First Earth Day

The very first celebration of Earth Day was on April 22, 1970 founded by United States Senator Gaylord Nelson. This event is considered by some as the birth of the environmental movement as well. 

How It Began

An environmental nightmare is what gave birth to Earth Day. A gas and oil leak on the afternoon of January 29, 1969 took place in Santa Barbara, California.

Why April 22?

Senator Nelson initially wanted to get the most number of college kids who can participate in the event and this date is perfect because it sits just between Spring break and the finals frenzy. It also helps that it's after Easter and Passover.

100,000 Bicycles

On Earth Day 2012, 100,000 bicycles were ridden in China to raise climate change awareness. Bicycles were used to show that riding bicycles can help save fuel burned by motor vehicles while also reducing carbon emissions.

The Anthem

To honor our dear planet and its inhabitants, Indian poet and diplomat Abhay Kumar wrote a piece called the "Earth Anthem". It has since been translated in all of the official UN languages, as well as English, French, Spanish, Russian, Arabic, Hindi, Nepali, and Chinese.

7.8 Billion Trees

To commemorate the 50th anniversary of the event by 2020, a goal to plant 7.8 billion trees worldwide was set by the Earth Day network. We will all see how we did once Earth Day 2020 unfolds.

A Global Event

Today, Earth Day has truly become a phenomenon all over the world although its origin can be traced back to the US. Denis Hayes was responsible for making similar events happen in 141 countries back in 1990 thus giving Earth Day its international status.

In the end, we realized we were much better off trusting what the ALL IN Miami Group told us than listening to the other so-called experts.

Our home, priced at $1,225,000, was on the market for a year without any offers........Amit sold it in 34 days at a price that we were very happy with.

"After our home, priced at $1,225,000, was on the market with a local Realtor for ONE YEAR without receiving any offers, my family and I had given up hope of selling our house. 

The first day our home came off the market, I received countless calls from real estate agents from many different luxury real estate companies. 

For about a month, none of them made me feel confident that our home would ever sell until I spoke to Amit and the team. There was something different about them compared to everyone else. They had a calm, soothing, yet very confident tone in their voice, and I was immediately convinced that our house would be sold the first time we spoke. 

To make a long story short, our home was sold in 34 days at a price that we were very happy with and with no stress. Doing business with true professionals made all the difference." 


My home was on the market with three real estate agents and it didn't sell. They all told me that the luxury market was very slow and my home was way overpriced. Amit sold my house in two and half weeks over the asking price. Couldn't be happier!
