A next step. Re:imagine what it means to shape community - a community of earth givers. That's what Earth Gives is doing through a US-wide giving day focused specifically on climate action - a showcase of nonprofits working and driving solutions forward. Is that you and your organization? Registration is now open for 501c3 and fiscally-sponsored organizations. Earth Gives Day 2024 is set for Sept 6-October 1 - a critical time of the year to rally investment in your work, to get volunteers signed up and willing to advance your work, to get friends to fund raise for you through Peer-to-Peer giving, and to collectively invite a deeper understanding of the issues at hand. EarthGives.org is where you start. A quick 2-step process might take you 10-20 minutes. 🐳 Together, we can amplify a call for all to engage in climate action. 🌎 #climatejustice #climatecrisis #climateaction #environment #wildlife #nature #pollution #advocacy

Today is the United Nations’ World Environment Day, the day where people from across the world speak up to raise awareness and action for the protection of the environment. Our environment. The world is joining together to discuss land restoration, desertification and drought resilience, all under the 2024 slogan of “Our land. Our future. We are #GenerationRestoration.” At EESI, the restoration of land has been the central tenant and driving force behind all the work that we do as contaminated land consultants. Every day, the samples we collect, the analysis we undertake, the advice that we provide, the work that we do is undertaken to aid in the restoration of our degraded lands. If you aren't already, there are so many ways to participate and make a difference. Raising awareness within your local communities and keeping conversation going, attending a World Environment Day event, or donating and volunteering with a local environmental charity. It's only together that we can create a healthier, more resilient planet for generations to come. #WorldEnvironmentDay #LandRestoration #Sustainability #GenerationRestoration #WeFixLand #EESI
