News Wrap: Earth Day’s 50th anniversary arrives for a cleaner planet
In our news wrap Wednesday, it was the 50th anniversary of Earth Day, and it came as COVID-19 lockdowns have cleared air and water worldwide. Pollution in several major cities, including Paris and New Delhi, is about 50 percent lower than in previous years. Also, President Trump says he has ordered the U.S. Navy to “destroy” any Iranian gunboats that harass American ships in the Persian Gulf.
