Earth is it. Our only address. There’s no other home we just skip off to if this one doesn’t quite work out. This planet deserves and needs the best from us—all of us. And the only real way to help protect, preserve or change it for the better, is to do it together. Brought to you by Nestlé Waters North America and hosted by ESPN and WWE personality Charly Arnolt/Caruso, THIS IS HOW WE PLANET™ discusses some of the most pressing issues of the day, from the health of children to the health of the planet, and how the best solutions can only come from collaboration between individuals, organizations, and corporations. THIS IS HOW WE PLANET spotlights experts, nonprofit organizations, businesses, and individuals who are committed to making a change, and what they do to make it happen. We also want to celebrate real-life PLANET HEROES and ask you to help us recognize the ones that are closest to you. This is how we think. This is how we act. This is how we planet.
