🌏 Welcome to Earth Month Ecochallenge 2025!

Since the first Earth Day in 1970, when 20 million people in the United States rallied for a better future for our planet, Earth Day has evolved into the planet’s most significant annual civic engagement event. Expanding beyond a single day, Earth Day now encompasses the entire month of April globally. The Earth Month Ecochallenge is your opportunity to transform Earth Day intentions into impactful actions and lasting habits.

Take Action For the Earth, For Each Other, For Tomorrow: Your Choices Shape Our World

Earth Month Ecochallenge, running from April 1st to April 30th, is a 30-day program focused on environmental and social engagement. During this month, you're invited to select actions that resonate with your values, committing to them for 30 days to foster and reinforce positive habits. Each action you complete earns points and generates real-world impact. Your efforts, combined with those of your team, contribute to a significant collective difference.

This year’s theme, “For the Earth, For Each Other, For Tomorrow,” is about fostering hope and inspiring action for a better future. Through daily actions and shared learning, we can create a more sustainable and equitable world - one where people and nature thrive together. Join us to discover how small steps today can create a ripple effect for future generations.

This year’s Earth Month Ecochallenge features six inspiring categories to explore—Land, Water, and Air; Wildlife; Community and Connection; Health and Well-being; and our two new additions, Sustainable Innovation and Empowering the Next Generation. Whether you choose one-time steps or commit to daily habits, there’s something for everyone. Challenge yourself to try something new this year, and discover how even small actions can lead to meaningful change for yourself, your community, and the planet.

Earth Month Ecochallenge is free and open to all. You can participate as part of a team with your friends, family, or colleagues or join as an individual on Ecochallenge’s Community Team.

This Earth Month, let’s take action to create a better tomorrow for people, nature, and future generations. Together, we can turn hope into action and create a ripple effect of positive change for our planet!
