EARTH DAY BIG EVENT
- This topic has 0 replies, 1 voice, and was last updated 4 years ago by .
Hey everyone,
Earth day is coming in April !! I received the following email and I think it’s a great opportunity for us to get involved and do some event either together or separately, but do something!
As an initial idea, I thought we could open up our workshops’ doors so that people can come and visit (maybe offer some snacks?) and get educated about our work. If you create an event and register on the earth day website you’ll probably get some visitors, who knows!
What do you guys think? Any other ideas to create a lot of noise??
This is the email:
Earth Day Network is committed to catalyzing the movement to put an end to one of the greatest threats to the survival of our planet and every living being on it. On Earth Day, April 22, 2018, with your help, we will mobilize across oceans and continents to End Plastic Pollution.

Take Part in Climate Education Week: Climate Education Week will start April 16th and the Climate Education Week Toolkit will provide a week of activities for K-12 students to learn about and act to prevent local plastic pollution. A toolkit will soon be available on our website on this page.
Mobilize your Campus: For teachers and students at higher education institutions, check out the MobilizeU Toolkit that takes you step by step to organize a teach-in on your campus to address plastic pollution.
