At her feet lies a garden of the eight national flowers, creating a powerful image of a shared garden of South Asian heritage.

#EarthDay is 22nd April every year. It aims to help people learn how to look after the planet - raise awareness of ecological sustainability, promote conservation and action on environmental issues. The 2026 them is #OurPowerOurPlanet. What tips can you share an earth day?

Official Earth Day poster Earth Day 2026.
Every year, one image gets to carry the weight of a movement. For 2026, that image belongs to Los Angeles artist Miles Wintner — a flower made of Earth, held in human hands. Tender, bold, and alive. He calls it the Earthflower: a reminder that flowers are not decoration, they are connection, linking birds, insects, and humans in the same quiet act of care.
