Today, April 22, 2026, marks the 56th anniversary of Earth Day, as millions of people across more than 190 countries mobilize under the global theme "Our Power, Our Planet." Moving beyond the policy-heavy discussions of previous years, the 2026 movement is defined by a shift toward civic mobilization and democratic action, emphasizing that the power to solve environmental crises resides within local communities, regardless of shifting political landscapes.
