United Nations World Wildlife Day (WWD) is celebrated every year on March 3 to celebrate wild animals and plants. Every year, we recognize the unique roles and contributions of wildlife to people and the planet. 

From the highland steppe to the coral reefs, wild animals and plants hold intrinsic value. As essential parts of Earth's intricate web of life, they sustain ecosystems, regulate natural processes, and support biodiversity.   With more than 1 million species now estimated to be threatened with extinction amid the intensifying triple planetary crisis, innovative finance for wildlife conservation has never been more urgent. Over half of the world’s gross domestic product (GDP) is dependent on nature, making biodiversity loss an increasing threat to financial stability and livelihoodss,

The 2025 theme is Wildlife Conservation Finance: Investing in People and Planet. 

Water is the building block of life. Here in the United States, it’s easy to take water for granted — it just comes out of the faucet anytime you want it. Yet, all over the globe there are people who don’t have access to clean, safe drinking water. March 22 is World Water Day, a day dedicated to drawing attention to the water-related issues that humans face in almost every country.

Earth Day may be on April 22, but it can be celebrated the entire month of April! This year's theme is Our Power, Our Planet. Let’s unite in our collective global commitment to renewable energy, whether it’s solar, wind, hydroelectric, geothermal or tidal – to generate clean electricity for everyone.
