A Global Movement for Nature, Science, and Creativity
The Movement
The environment is part of who we are — yet many people feel disconnected from nature and unsure how to help. Climate change, pollution, and ecosystem loss can feel overwhelming, but small, consistent actions truly add up.
100 Acts of Kindness to the Environment is an invitation to take 100 meaningful steps for our planet. Through simple, everyday acts — powered by citizen science — participants help restore ecosystems, collect valuable environmental data, and tell a new story of stewardship through creativity and community.
This is more than a challenge.
It’s action with purpose.
Creativity with impact.
And a global movement rooted in hope.
Make your art count for science!
Log your cleanup actions through the 100 Acts of Kindness to the Environment Project and contribute to global environmental research while creating your masterpiece.
