ALL - Make Every Day Earth Day
April 7 and 14 @ 12:30 pm
Large Meeting Room

This class will celebrate the small things each of us can do every day to reduce our environmental impact and be good ancestors for our children and grandchildren. We will begin by learning about the concepts of ecological footprint and environmental justice before moving into a series of practical actions. Simple strategies for reducing waste, composting food scraps, eating plant-based meals, and saving energy will be discussed. Participants are welcome to come with questions and offer ideas of their own!

This course is led by: Dr. Anna Willow is a professor of anthropology at the Ohio State University.
