The sun crosses the celestial equator moving southward. Day and Night are of equal length. The sun rises due east and sets due west everywhere on Earth. This is the autumnal equinox in the Northern Hemisphere, the vernal equinox (Spring) in the Southern Hemisphere.

World Rivers Day is a global celebration of the world’s waterways. WRD highlights the importance and value of rivers and strives to encourage increased stewardship of the world’s rivers. Go out there and adopt a river 🙂
