This date coincides with spring in the Northern Hemisphere (Northern Hemisphere) and autumn in the Southern Hemisphere. The UN itself celebrates Earth Day on March 20, a tradition proclaimed by peace activist John McConnell in 1969, is a day on which the sun is directly above the equator which is often called the March Equinox.
