INVEST IN OUR PLANET
In 2022, we all must enter into one partnership for the planet. Unlike other historic economic revolutions, this time there are two additional imperatives: The first is to save ourselves from the climate crisis, and the second is to build new green economies in every country so that everyone can share in the benefits from this green revolution. This will only be done if we invest in our planet’s future together. — Kathleen Rogers, President, EARTHDAY.ORG
