JCI Aberdeen Earth Day Clean-Up 2023

JCI Aberdeen will be hosting an Earth Day Clean-up project on Saturday, 22nd April 2023.

What is Earth Day about?

Marked by millions around the world, Earth Day is an annual event designed to shine a light on the serious environmental problems we’re facing, from the climate crisis to air pollution and deforestation.

Earth Day 2023 occurs after the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) issued a study in August 2021 that was regarded as a “code red for humanity,” with experts warning that temperatures are expected to soar above 2°C above pre-industrial levels this century (a scenario that would have catastrophic effects worldwide). Meanwhile, there was widespread dissatisfaction with the agreement reached at Cop26 in November 2021, demonstrating the severity of the task we confront.
