Each day for five days, participants of the Earth Day Challenge will receive one action (via email) focusing on one aspect of daily behavior that can be modified to reduce waste and emissions, increase sustainable habits, and inspire others to do the same! The Challenge begins April 16 building toward Earth Day, April 22, on which day we’ll also celebrate the premiere of the new Dr. Jane Goodall documentary ‘The Hope’ created in partnership between the Jane Goodall Institute and National Geographic.
