Earth Day Climate Action: Social Media Toolkit | Cal Parks

This April, join California State Parks Foundation to fight climate change. Celebrate Earth Day with us all month long by engaging in a series of volunteer workdays across California. Open to all — individuals, families, and corporate groups are welcome to make a tangible impact in creating climate-resilient parks. These events are not just about giving back but also learning about the profound effects of climate change on our beloved parks. Share your journey, learnings, and joy with your circles, and let's showcase the importance of climate resilience across social media platforms!
