SUMMARY:Celebrate Earth Day 2026
DESCRIPTION:Earth Day | Catholic Climate Covenant\nEarth Day has never been meant to live for just one date on the calendar. In 2026\, the focus moves past awareness and into responsibility.  The Earth Day 2026 theme\, “Our Power\, Our Planet\,” challenges the idea that caring for the planet is symbolic or optional.  It asks a harder question: what happens after Earth Day ends?  The choices made in homes\, workplaces\, classrooms\, and communities carry more weight than speeches or social posts.  Earth Day 2026 draws attention to the power people already use every day—and how that power can either protect the planet or quietly damage it. \nClick here for information.  \n \n
