Embracing Earth Day: Preserving Our Planet for Future Generations
Earth Day, a reminder of our responsibility to the planet.
Since its inception in the 1970s, April 22nd has urged corporations and leaders to reflect on their environmental impact and take steps toward sustainability.
Consider joining initiatives like EARTHDAY.ORG's Planet vs. Plastics, aiming for a 60% reduction in plastic production by 2024. The World Wildlife Fund provides resources for sustainability efforts, from 60 Actions for the Planet to dedicating an hour to serving the earth. Earth Day Canada and NYC are focusing on sustainable mobility with events like leg days and Open Streets.
Explore local events on EARTHDAY.ORG's tracker for more opportunities. Corporate sustainability efforts extend beyond Earth Day, with initiatives like the Pledge 1% driving climate action.
For a lasting commitment, learn from companies like Salesforce and Atlassian, pledging 1% of their equity, time, product, or profit.
