Some Earth Day activities

Due to public health and safety concerns around COVID-19, The Great Global Cleanup, Earth Day Network’s flagship volunteer program, is being postponed to the fall. We are encouraging volunteers to undertake individual and socially distanced cleanups where possible.

Earth Day.org has also issued individual challenges to make a difference from our homes:

  • Compost creatively
  • Go plant-based for one meal/day
  • Become a citizen scientist

Instead of in-person rallies, strikes and marches, we’re going virtual for Earth Day Live: a powerful THREE DAYS of livestream to bring our movement together www.earthdaylive2020.org
