On December 4, 2024, CNN’s fourth annual Call to Earth Day will celebrate the links between people and cultures and how these can help to play a vital role in preserving our planet. Partnering with schools, individuals and organisations across the world, CNN will use its global presence for a day of action to raise awareness of environmental issues and to engage with conservation education.
