What is Pokémon Go Sustainability Week?
Pokemon Go developer Niantic began celebrating Earth Day in 2018 by teaming up with organizations worldwide to host park and beach cleanups, giving special rewards based on the number of trainers who participated. While Earth Day activities were canceled in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, they've returned this year as part of the new Pokémon Go Sustainability Week.
