Today is Indigenous Peoples’ Day. PA DEP encourages all Pennsylvanians to take time to learn about the deep environmental history of our state and how people have interacted with its land and waterways for thousands of years.

Understanding this long relationship with the environment helps inform how we care for Pennsylvania’s natural resources today.
