Earth Day - 40th Anniversary
Thursday, April 22, 2010
This year marks the 40th Anniversary of Earth Day! Let’s do
our part to save the planet for future generations.
Did you know that each day in America, more than 60
million (yes million) plastic water bottles are thrown into
landfills. There is one small thing that all of us can do to help
reduce that waste … drink from a reusable water bottle.
Stop by the Swanson Center for your free reusable aluminum
water bottle, while supplies last
