Earth Month 2023

The first Earth Day was held on April 22, 1970. Students, parents, teachers, blue-collar, and white-collar folks came together in an amazing display of unity to demand better treatment for the air, the land, the water, and the people. This eventually led to the formation of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) which stands as proof of what we can all achieve when we work together for the environment!

This Earth Month we want to discuss four serious issues the planet is facing right now along with simple solutions we can all incorporate into our lives and habits, starting today. We hope you’ll join us this month as we take action for this beautiful, life-giving planet that we are so lucky to call home.
