Celebrate Earth Day all week long
From April 19-23, celebrate Earth Day and #RestoreOurEarth by participating in virtual events and activities from home. While Earth Day is traditionally celebrated on April 22, numerous organizations have teamed up to offer virtual events and learning opportunities throughout the week.
The University of Manitoba community is invited to participate in virtual events, personal challenges and watch recommended documentaries by following the Office of Sustainability on social media and using our Earth Week Bingo Card for your chance to win an eco-prize pack.
