Earth Day was first established in 1970 so that a growing global community of activists could demonstrate their support for environmental protection. 

The Earth Day movement has grown from strength to strength ever since. Climate change has come to the fore as one of the leading issues for Earth Day, with the Paris climate agreement, for instance, being signed on Earth Day. 

The Biden Administration is to convene a global climate summit for Earth Day 2021, with action focused on this year's chose theme of 'Restore Our Earth'.

CCAFS marshals the science and expertise of the global CGIAR partnership to catalyze positive change towards a climate-smart future in agriculture and food systems.
