Earth Day is now recognized worldwide as the most significant civic engagement event each year. The 50th anniversary of Earth Day will be marked by thousands of rallies and community events in every country in, and that includes St. Louis!

Earthday365 is proud to partner with the Earth Day Network, the global coordinator of Earth Day, to join other citizens, cities, states, and countries, and mark this important anniversary with events and activities throughout the year.
The St. Louis Earth Day Festival on April 25-26, 2020 is included in the list of significant global events that will take part in this initiative. Additional activities and events will also be announced soon. All are invited to join in to celebrate the milestone!
