EARTH DAY

inspiration

Earth Day (April 22) unites millions of people around the world to inspire action to protect our beautiful, abundant planet against further climate change and environmental degradation.


2022 saw London’s first annual Earthfest in Victoria Park, with over 350 attendees and 30 exhibitors. Earthfest 2023 hopes to build on this success.

We are looking forward to showcasing stories of environmental action printed on large posters at Earthfest. These will be displayed in the corridor leading from Dundas Place to the Central Library.


These stories could be small actions or big projects that take climate action. The goal is to display our community members' successes and inspire Londoners to make a difference in their communities.


Thank you to everybody who shared sustainability success stories using our online form. Submissions are now closed.
