What we do
Earth Day Pier 5 Celebration – 2023

Building environmental democracy, to diversify, educate, and activate. Growing out of the first Earth Day (1970), the Earth Day organization is the world’s largest environmental movement and civic observance including 1 billion participants annually, 150,000 partners in 192 countries.
Hosted by the Pier 5 Association community nonprofit organization dedicated to socio-ecological equity, justice and saving Pier 5 to be a nature based Memorial Public Park instead of condominiums amidst a massive population increase and diminishing canopy.
