Calling all Earth enthusiasts! We’re here with a planet-friendly guide to getting involved with Earth Day 2025!
Earth Day is here - April 22, to be exact so get ready to hug some trees. This is the moment to crank up our eco-energy and show this spinning blue marble how much we love it. But what is Earth Day 2025 really about, and how can you join in with the celebrations? Let’s take a look.
what is Earth Day?
Born in 1970, Earth Day is like the OG of environmental movements. It’s the day millions of people unite to show support for environmental protection; through activism, education and some seriously creative eco-actions. Think marches, beach clean ups, tree planting or just turning off the lights for a candlelit dinner (romantic and sustainable).
In 2025, Earth Day’s theme is Invest in Our Planet, which feels especially fitting as we navigate wild weather, biodiversity loss and the fact that we still can’t seem to recycle properly.
when is Earth Day 2025?
April 22, 2025. This year, it’s a Tuesday - perfect for a midweek dose of planet-loving action.
how YOU can get involved.
This isn’t just a day to think about saving the Earth - it’s a day to DO something. Big or small, every action counts. Here’s how you can join in:
1. go green with your cleaning.
Of course, we had to start here because cleaning is our jam. Switch to planet-friendlier products like ours (humble brag: we’re as tough on grime as the big brands but kinder to the planet). Less plastic, fewer harsh chemicals and no compromise on sparkle. Bonus points if you reuse old T-shirts as cleaning cloths (although ours are made from plants and are super popular so check them out here).
2. flex your green fingers.
Trees, flowers, herbs - whatever makes your patch of the planet happier. Just a single tree has so much to offer… it will capture carbon dioxide, provide food and shelter to thousands of species of wildlife, help maintain the water table, reduce intensity of floods, give shade (cooling the area below) AND maintain unique communities themselves of plants, fungi, insects and microorganisms!
Each seed planted is a tiny green rebellion against pollution.
3. join a clean-up group.
From litter-picking in local parks to clearing plastics from beaches, these events are a hands-on way to make an impact. Don’t forget your gloves and litter-picking snacks.
4. get educated.
Watch a documentary, read an article or share a post about sustainability with your mates. Knowledge is power, and it’s also a great way to help others get active on Earth Day too.
5. make a promise.
Whether it’s cutting out single-use plastics (with smol’s household cleaning range), eating less meat or biking to work; commit to one planet-friendly habit and stick to it. It’s the gift that keeps on giving.
why Earth Day matters.
This isn’t just a feel-good moment. Earth Day is a rallying cry to wake up and step up. With climate change showing up like an unwanted guest at every party, we can’t afford to hit snooze on this alarm clock.
The best part? You don’t need to be perfect. No one is asking you to live off-grid or compost your own socks. Small steps matter and when millions of us take them together, the impact is huge.
So…
- Pick an activity.
- Get your hands dirty (literally or metaphorically).
- Sprinkle in some smol planet-friendly cleaning magic.
- Snap a photo and share it with the hashtag #EarthDay2025
So, there you have it. Earth Day 2025 is your chance to show some love to the only planet we’ve got. Let’s make it count, one smol step at a time.
