Dare to be a force of Nature

Spend Earth Week with Us. April 17-23

“You cannot get through a single day without having an impact on the world around you. What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make.” 
- Jane Goodall, primatologist and anthropologist, conservation advocate

Earth Week presents an opportunity for students, faculty, and staff to participate in cross-disciplinary events designed to educate and inspire action around themes of environmental justice, climate, and nature-based solutions. 

This University-wide initiative welcomes schools, centers, student groups, community organizations, and Green Teams to organize events that encourage active engagement. Join us for workshops, guest speakers, litter clean-ups, community gardening, e-waste drives, live performances, and more. 

Register your event for inclusion on our Earth Week Calendar. Questions about Earth Week? Get in touch with Penn Sustainability at sustainability@upenn.edu.
