Earth Day Campaign

earth-dayEarth Day Network — the global coordinator of Earth Day — is building the world’s largest coalition of people united to ensure a healthy planet. Working year-round with more than 50,000 partner organizations in 192 countries, our global campaigns and programs bring hundreds of thousands of new voices — representing youth and faculty, the faith community, minority groups, women, teachers, students and others — into the environmental movement.
