World Environment Day 2026

Clean energy is our answer to the climate crisis. Join us this World Environment Day.

Every 5 June, the world comes together for World Environment Day. This year, the UN’s #NowForClimate campaign asks a vital question: the planet is sending us signals, so how will we respond?

Our answer is clean energy. Energy production and use drive 75% of global emissions, making it our single biggest opportunity to turn things around. The shift is already happening: clean energy is growing faster than ever, and for the first time in a century, the world produces more electricity from renewables than from coal.

This is the work we do every day at SEforALL. We help countries accelerate their energy transitions, expand energy access and support communities to live dignified lives on a healthy planet. 

The clean energy transition is the greatest opportunity of our time. It can grow economies, create jobs and build a future where everyone can thrive. The momentum is here and the choices we make now will shape it. Whatever you choose to do, your action counts. This World Environment Day, we'd love for you to join us.

Support our work

Here’s how you can make an impact:

If you're an individual:

1. Save energy at home. Switch to LED bulbs and efficient appliances, heat or cool only the rooms you’re using, air-dry your clothes and turn off what you're not using.

2. Choose how you get around. Walking, cycling, sharing rides and using public transport save money and cut emissions while cleaner options like electric vehicles help for longer journeys.

3. Share the message this World Environment Day. Share our posts and assets and post a clean energy solution you believe in, using #SDG7ForClimate and #NowForClimate tagging SEforALL.

3. Speak up for change. Talk about clean energy with family, friends and colleagues. Let leaders and decision-makers know a just and equitable energy transition matters to you.

4. Build your knowledge. Clean energy is the backbone of climate action. Discover how SEforALL is scaling the solutions we need.

If you're an organization or business:

1. Create the workforce of the future. Invest in skills, training and opportunities — especially for women and young people — to build the talent a growing clean energy sector needs.

2. Lead by example. Commit to clean energy in your own operations and make energy efficiency your first move. It's the fastest, cheapest way to cut emissions and costs.

3. Partner with us. Fund the energy transition that leaves no one behind. The world cannot achieve its climate and development goals without universal access to sustainable energy. Support SEforALL to unlock investment, scale clean energy solutions and deliver transformative impact for the communities that need it most.
