Hi,

Earth Day Network has always engaged faith partners worldwide through its programs and campaigns. Whether facilitating interfaith dialogue on climate change between Christian, Jewish and Muslim clergy, or working with India’s Sikh community to reduce plastic consumption and waste, our goals have remained the same: to elevate science, promote action and volunteerism, and expand environmental education.

From Earth Day 2020’s climate action campaign, we’ve curated a variety of digital content you can access at earthday.org. In the next several months we’ll develop curricula based on this new digital content.

To learn more about our work, check out our feature page and read the articles below. To stay up-to-date on our faith program, sign up to receive monthly updates.

In faith,
