Arnold Schwarzenegger calls for climate protection: Take part in #pumpforthplanet!

Wien, Österreich - Arnold Schwarzenegger launched the "Pump for the Planet" campaign on today's Earth Day, April 22, 2025. The aim of this initiative is to motivate people of all ages to participate in climate protection. The campaign will continue until the Austrian World Summit 2025, which will take place on June 3. Schwarzenegger emphasizes the urgency of a united strength in the struggle for climate and environmental protection.

In the context of the campaign, various options for active participation are presented. Parents and children are called up to carry out actions such as cycling, collecting waste or using reusable drinking bottles. The hashtag #pumpforthplanet and the Instagram profile of the Schwarzenegger Climate Initiative should help to make the different actions more visible.

Prominent supporters of the campaign include Giovanni Zarrella, The Bosshoss, Valerie Huber, Barbara Meier, Hans Sigl, Ralf Möller and Elisabeth Görgl. The campaign will also include seven themed weeks with different focuses. On the initiative's website, a “training plan” is available for an environmental workout, which encourages participants to share workout photos and videos and be creative. For the most creative workouts, a price is awarded every week.

Schwarzenegger emphasizes that there are already many exemplary initiatives in the area of climate protection, including Bicibus, Planet Matters and Green Heroes, who are supposed to learn support from the campaign.

The role of climate protection organizations

Schwarzenegger's commitment fits into a larger context of international efforts to protect climate protection. Climate protection organizations play a crucial role in coping with the global environmental crisis. SigmaEarth describes that these organizations are active in areas such as research, advocacy and basic activism. They pursue main goals such as the support of sustainable politics, the development of practical solutions and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.

Some of these organizations are the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), Greenpeace, the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) and 350.org. Through their diverse activities, these organizations contribute to the awareness of the public and promote international cooperation and political changes. Such a unit is crucial in order to be able to effectively counter the challenges of climate change.

With the "Pump for the Planet" campaign, Arnold Schwarzenegger takes a pioneering step to strengthen the awareness of climate protection in society and to promote individual actions. Through communal commitment, individuals and communities can contribute to coping with the climate crisis, which not only protects your own environment, but also the planet.
