Earth Day was founded in 1970 as a day of education about environmental issues, and Earth Day 2023 will occur on Saturday, April 22, the holiday's 53rd anniversary. The holiday is now a global celebration that's sometimes extended into Earth Week, a full seven days of events focused on environmental action and sustainable living.
Celebrate Earth Day with a challenge that makes everyone a winner!
Take the Earth Day Challenge, and participate in a new, interactive photo challenge! We took the 2023 Earth Day theme “Invest in Your Planet” and turned it into “Invest in Your Parish.” Now it’s a race to see which parish will commit to the most environmental actions. We’ve also teamed up with Hink to enable the seamless sharing of high-resolution photos and videos of friends, family, and colleagues. Plus, you can easily search and download your own pictures, which are available to everyone else with the app right away.
Which parish will secure the top spot in the 2023 Bermuda Earth Day Challenge? The choice is yours! Download Hink from the App Store or Google Play and “Invest in Your Parish” in high resolution!

Take pictures or videos of you and your loved ones participating in the challenge and upload them into the Hink app so that we can see the activity in each parish on the Interactive Earth Day Challenge map, and all of your friends and family have access to the photos you take as well.
