Earth Day: Working together for a greener future - also in team building
Earth Day is celebrated worldwide on April 22 - a day to raise awareness of the need to protect our planet. On this day, millions of people are committed to greater sustainability, environmental protection and social responsibility. Companies are also called upon to take action - not only through sustainable processes, but also through consciously designed team activities. After all, strengthening team spirit and doing something for the environment at the same time creates double added value.


Sustainability in the company starts with the team
Today, sustainability is much more than a trend - it is an attitude. And this attitude can become visible and tangible in everyday working life, for example through sustainable team events that are not only fun but also meaningful. Earth Day is the perfect opportunity to set an example: for strong cooperation and for our environment.
At VARIO Teambuilding, we focus on events that pursue precisely this approach. Two formats are particularly suitable for celebrating Earth Day together with your team - active, sustainable and with a lasting impression.
SolarBuddy: Light for a better future
The SolarBuddy team event turns a team-building experience into real help for self-help: the participants build small, solar-powered lamps together, which are later given to children in developing countries. These lamps replace kerosene lamps, which are harmful to health and the environment, and enable the children to learn and live safely after dark.
Why SolarBuddy is a perfect fit for Earth Day:
- Sustainability and social responsibility are brought to life
- Meaningful work strengthens team cohesion
- Global impact with local commitment
A team event with real impact - emotional, motivating and perfectly in line with the Earth Day concept.
Wind turbine vs. CO2: Experience and understand energy
How does wind energy work? And how much CO2 can we actually save through renewable energies? In our team event “Wind turbine vs. CO2”, the teams build their own mini wind turbines and compete creatively for efficiency, innovation and environmental awareness.
What makes this team building so special:
- Promotion of teamwork and technical understanding
- A playful approach to climate protection
- Fun, energy and aha moments guaranteed
The format is ideal for companies that want to promote a sustainable mindset - with an event that inspires and imparts knowledge at eye level.
Earth Day as a starting point for more sustainability in the team
A sustainable team event for Earth Day is more than just a nice occasion. It sends a strong signal - to the team, to society and to future generations. Those who use this day to anchor sustainability in the company on an emotional level are investing in a responsible corporate culture.
Whether SolarBuddy, wind turbine vs. CO2 or a customized event - we at VARIO Teambuilding will be happy to advise you on the right format for your team. Let's make a difference together - on Earth Day and beyond.
