CEC’s 2021 Virtual Santa Barbara Earth Day

The Community Environmental Council (CEC) will host its 2021 Santa Barbara Earth Day Festival—which is free to attend and virtual— on Thursday, April 22nd through Saturday, April 24th starting at 12:00 p.m. each day. Join us for conversations with climate leaders, get into the groove with musical performances and art contests, build community and connect with eco-minded exhibitors, and learn how you can lean into climate action at this urgent moment. Livestream on SBEarthDay.org from anywhere you are! CEC’s Santa Barbara Earth Day is fully online again in 2021 due to ongoing COVID-19 restrictions.

The three-day #CelebrateClimateLeadership event will celebrate key areas where climate leaders are stepping up to do the critical work needed to combat the climate crisis:

April 22: Youth Leadership

April 23: Business Leadership

April 24: Community Leadership

CEC will also use the three-day event to outline and dive deeper into the organization’s ambitious plan for how our community can meet the urgency of the climate crisis and go all in together on halting the impacts of climate change – rapidly and equitably – through three major efforts:

• Reverse: Push for ambitious, equitable zero emissions and zero waste goals for the energy, transportation, food, and agriculture sectors

• Repair: Tap into the power of nature to draw down excess carbon from the atmosphere and repair the disrupted carbon cycle

• Protect: Safeguard the health of our general public and vulnerable populations from the impacts of climate change already underway
