Earth Week, Earth Month

Earth Week in April is an excellent time to promote a school culture of environmental sustainability.

Tips:

• Have specific focuses each day of the week: Meatless Monday, Tupperware Tuesday, Walking Wednesday, Thrift Thursday, Waste-Free Friday.
• Hold an eco-themed assembly or invite a local environmental organizer to share their cause. Invite your school community.
• Embrace a whole month of eco-awareness. First week, consider waste awareness; second week, share information about endangered species; third week, get outside and walk to school; fourth week, raise awareness about a local environmental issue.
