Hi,

Since the inaugural Earth Day in 1970, EARTHDAY.ORG has tirelessly championed our planet. Year after year, a billion people worldwide come together, engaging in activities from cleanups to petition signings, all in support of our shared mission to protect our planet.

Throughout the years, we've recognized the power of art to highlight the pressing need for environmental stewardship. Earth Day 2024 will be no exception!

We are thrilled to announce that our Your Art, Our Earth poster competition is officially underway. This competition invites activists like you to lend your creative voice to this global cause. Submissions are open until January 22, 2024, and we can't wait to see your vision come to life.

Learn more about the contest.

This year, our focus is on Planet vs. Plastics, an initiative aimed at highlighting the insidious impacts of plastics globally — in our oceans, on land, and in our bodies. We've organized the competition into three categories: Plastics and Human Health, Plastics and Our Oceans, and Plastics and Fashion. Each explores the intricate relationship between plastics and these crucial aspects of our world.

We're setting a bold target: a 60% reduction in global plastic production by 2040. Your contribution to this movement is vital. We invite you to create an iconic poster that powerfully conveys the urgency of saying NO to plastics. Your creativity has the potential to inspire change, guiding us towards a healthier, more sustainable world.

Together, we can make a profound impact!

Warm regards,

Kathleen Rogers
President
