Earth Science Week, celebrated each October, reaches millions of people annually with activities, materials, and information about the geosciences. Since its inception 20 years ago, Earth Science Week remains the largest international education campaign dedicated exclusively to promoting awareness of the importance of the geosciences and stewardship of the planet.
