Earth Day Climate Action | Cal Parks

JOIN US FOR EARTH DAY CLIMATE ACTION 2024! 

This month-long celebration of stewardship and climate action will be held in person and focus on supporting parks by bolstering their climate resiliency.

Earth Day is widely recognized as the largest secular observance in the world, marked by more than a billion people every year as a day of action to change human behavior and create global, national, and local policy changes. We hope will join us in celebrating this day of global change by joining a workday at a state park near you.

Below you will find all the ways you can get involved with Earth Day Climate Action! From volunteering in person to taking action online to win a prize. There is something for everyone this Earth Month!
