Earth Day 2025's theme, 'Our power, our planet,' underscores urgent calls for action amidst climate crises, with experts warning nations are falling short of Paris Agreement targets. Despite lack of international agreements on plastic pollution and alarming tree species extinction rates, grassroots online communities like Stick Nation are emerging, fostering environmental awareness and action. These networks focus on mobilizing support and community initiatives, aiming to create tangible change despite challenges from higher powers. As Earth Day approaches, the push for sustainable practices and education is stronger than ever.
While those in the highest seats of power are struggling to enact real change, there are online networks carving out their own sustainable solutions.
The United Nations Environment Programme said in 2024 that countries aren't doing enough to lower emissions and are on course to completely miss the targets set in the 2015 Paris climate agreement.
