Since its launch in November 2015, the .earth web domain has focused on creating a unique place that unites like minds – whether it be brands or individuals – that allows them to promote their passions, causes, businesses, brands or stories for the overall betterment of life for all.
We have always been about creating a safe place on the Internet, while also allowing organizations to elevate their brands to enhance overall awareness, generate revenue, expand memberships and grow donor bases.
As the .earth web domain approaches its official 10th anniversary next month, one thing has never been clearer. The planet is changing fast, and the way we connect, communicate, and collaborate must evolve too.
With this in mind, here are the top 10 reasons why we need the .earth domain now more than ever.
- #10 – Climate Change Is Accelerating: From heat waves and droughts to rising seas, the effects of climate change are here. From local activists to global organizations, the .earth web domain gives everyone a powerful tool to share solutions, mobilize support, and take meaningful action before it is too late.
- #9 – Truth and Transparency Matter: In an age when misinformation spreads faster than facts, trust has never been more valuable. The .earth web domain has become a marker of credibility for scientists, researchers, and nonprofits who rely on data and evidence. It stands for honesty and integrity in environmental communication.
- #8 – Collaboration Is the Key to Progress: No single country, company, or individual can solve the climate crisis alone. The .earth community connects people from every continent and sector who are working toward the same goal for a thriving planet. By providing a unifying digital identity, .earth helps collaboration move faster and farther.
- #7 – Businesses Are Embracing Purpose: More than ever, consumers want to support brands that reflect their values. A .earth web address communicates that sustainability is not just a marketing slogan but a core principle. It helps businesses demonstrate that doing good and doing well are no longer separate goals.
- #6 – Technology Can Heal the Planet: From artificial intelligence to renewable energy, technology is transforming the way we live. Innovators using .earth domains are proving that tech can drive regeneration instead of destruction. They are designing tools that reduce emissions, clean our oceans, and protect biodiversity through innovation and data.
- #5 – The Next Generation Is Watching: Young people around the world are demanding climate action. A .earth web domain helps organizations show that they are part of the solution, not the problem. It signals integrity, hope, and commitment to a livable future, values that resonate with future leaders and changemakers.
- #4 – Community Stories Inspire Action: Local voices often hold the most powerful solutions. The .earth domain allows community projects, educators, and nonprofits to share their impact on a global stage. Whether it is a school garden, a clean-up project, or a rewilding effort, every local story adds to the collective movement for change.
- #3 – Creativity Can Change Hearts: Healing the Earth is not just about science and policy. It is also about emotion and imagination. Artists, filmmakers, and musicians using .earth are turning creative energy into environmental empathy, helping people feel connected to the planet again.
- #2 – The Internet Needs Meaning: The online world can feel crowded and chaotic, but .earth offers something different. It creates a corner of the Internet devoted to purpose, connection, and care for our planet. Every .earth website becomes a digital space that restores meaning in a digital landscape that too often rewards distraction.
- #1 – There Is No Planet B: At the heart of the .earth movement is a simple truth. We only have one home. The .earth domain gives everyone a place to take a stand for the planet, to build community, and to share ideas that safeguard life for generations to come.
This November, as we celebrate 10 years of the .earth web domain, we invite everyone to take part in our anniversary promotion, spotlighting how far the .earth tribe has come and how you can be part of the next decade of restoration and renewal.
