Disney Celebrates Earth Month 2025 with National Geographic’s ourHOME Campaign

April is Earth Month, and The Walt Disney Company is celebrating in a big way with the return of the ourHOME campaign, led by National Geographic. This enterprise-wide initiative is designed to inspire audiences to appreciate and protect the natural world through the power of storytelling.

Exciting New Content and Experiences for Earth Month

Throughout April, Disney and National Geographic will introduce new content, digital activations, and experiential events to engage fans worldwide. The ourHOME campaign aims to showcase conservation efforts while allowing fans to discover more reasons to love our planet.

Returning after a successful first year, the ourHOME campaign aligns with Disney and National Geographic’s commitment to transformative storytelling that deepens connections to nature. This initiative also coincides with the 30th anniversary of the Disney Conservation Fund (DCF), which will award over $500,000 in grants this April to nonprofit organizations focused on youth engagement with nature and wildlife conservation.

Exclusive Earth Month Releases on Disney+ and National Geographic

Disney+ will feature the ourHOME Collection, a year-round celebration of the planet through acclaimed documentaries and films. Plus, three global premieres will debut during Earth Week:

• “Secrets of the Penguins” (April 20, National Geographic, streaming April 21 on Disney+ & Hulu) – Hosted by Emmy-winning Nat Geo Explorer Bertie Gregory and narrated by Blake Lively, this documentary explores penguin behaviors captured on film for the first time.
