Under the theme “Our Power, Our Planet,” the organization EARTHDAY.ORG has announced the global focus for Earth Day, to be observed on April 22, 2026. The announcement serves as a rallying cry in response to environmental retrenchment seen in 2025, urging the public to defend environmental safeguards and community health.
The press release emphasizes that real change requires persistent public pressure rather than relying solely on good-faith negotiations. For 2026, the campaign calls on individuals, faith groups, and organizations to mobilize through peaceful demonstrations, voter registration drives, and town halls with officials to restore environmental protections and strengthen a green economy.
