Breyton Hill discusses the history of Earth Day on April 22 and how it came to be one of the largest secular holidays in the world. The theme of Earth Day 2026 is Our Power, Our Planet, which according to EarthDay.org, reflects a fundamental truth: environmental progress doesn’t depend on any single administration or election. It’s sustained by daily actions of communities, educators, workers, and families protecting where they live and work. Breyton invites all of the listeners to get involved in their community for Earth Day and celebrate the beauty that is living on this planet.
