Getting ready for World Clean Up Day 2023
World Clean-up Day is an annual global social event aimed at combating the global solid waste problem in our natural environment. It was started by a group called “Let's do it” in Estonia in 2008 when 50,000 residents came together to clean up the entire country in five hours. Since then the movement has gathered momentum and has inspired millions of people around the world to get out and clean up the environment around them. The World Clean Up Day is now one of the biggest environmental events in the world.
This year World Clean up day falls on Saturday 16th of September. While this date does not work for everyone you may find a more suitable date for your event in the two weeks following this date. We are sharing a video of how our Host Advisory Board members are going to celebrate this day.
Taking part in World Clean up Day is a great way to get your hosting community together and make a difference to the environment around us. Many Airbnb host groups took part in the Earth Day community clean-up event in April 2023 and had a great time getting to know one another while cleaning up their local environment. If you missed out on starting a community clean-up, now is your chance to get your hosting community together and have some fun getting to know one another while you clean up. Many hosts leaders commented that they found putting together the Earth Day clean up event earlier this year very easy and the impact they had was immense.

Hi @Marielle135
What a great idea - there are so many ways we can clean up our world. I think many of us forget about the impact our on line presence has and the emissions that are needed to keep it going!

Maharashtra Hosts with a guest met the needs of the day at the religious site of Baanganga - Team up to Clean up, today on the 16th September 2023. Sent a message through recycled placards to the local community to preserve the hygiene and avoid littering around this most significant place.

Yesterday on September 16th, Tokyo-Tama host community organized Clean Up Meetup at Shinjuku district in Tokyo.
One of our leaders, Miyoko Kanai had organized such meetup for more than 10 times in the past. So it’s kind of “usual activity”. But thank you for letting us know that this is global event happening around the world.
I’m excited to post our activity of yesterday Meetup.
We also enjoyed eating delicious soba in the traditional building with a guest from France.
