Earth Day- An annual event celebrated on April 22. Worldwide, various events are held to demonstrate support for environmental protection.

Earth Day April 22, 2019

I hope that each of you as an individual feel compelled to participate in some way to help protect our environment and create a more sustainable Earth (not only today , but everyday!).

Recycle your plastic shopping bags at The University of Winnipeg in the Bag it Forward Bins or drop them off at other plastic bag recycling locations in the city.

Each one of us on this beautiful Earth makes hundreds of choices a day. If we took a few more seconds to think about those choices more responsibly and consider not only ourselves, but our neighbours, community, ecosystem and Earth and realize that our simple choices do affect ecosystem dynamics, which in turn circle back to our existence in the ecosystem. I think that many of us would chose to participate in sustainable action regardless of size because it does make a difference!

HAPPY EARTH DAY 2019!
