Celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Earth Day Online
On April 22, we celebrate the 50th anniversary of Earth Day. Although we cannot celebrate together in person, there are still a variety of ways to celebrate at home alongside the Office of Sustainability and others around the world. Organizations are hosting webinars, online discussions and various activities to help you get involved.
#EarthDayAtHome
EarthDay.ca has put together a list of ways to celebrate Earth Day while staying home. Activities relate to food, energy, waste, sustainability mobility and nature. Check out the suggested at-home activities.
EarthDay.org Digital Earth Day
Over the 24 hours of Earth Day, the digital landscape will be filled with global conversations, calls to action, performances, video teach-ins and more. While EarthDay.org may be going digital, their goal remains the same: to mobilize the world to take the most meaningful actions to make a difference. Find a digital Earth Day event to join.
