The Fredonia campus will celebrate Earth Month during the entire month of April 2016. The tradition has grown from Earth Day to Earth Week to the first campus-wide Earth Month celebration this year.
Building on the success of the many events, activities and speakers in 2015, the goal continues to include activities and events from all areas on campus for Earth Month 2016. Kevin Cloos, director of Facilities Services, and Sarah Laurie, director of Environmental Health and Safety and Sustainability, have agreed to co-chair the Earth Month 2016 Planning Committee.
Campus organizations, departments, faculty, staff, and student groups are invited to submit events to include in the Earth Month calendar. If an event, film series scheduled, or a relevant educational activity with a theme related to earth day, environmental education, or sustainability is planned for the month, the university would like to include the event on the Earth Month calendar.
Events listed on the official calendar will benefit from inclusion in Earth Month promotional efforts and will be posted on the Earth Month website. Planning is already underway for the popular Electronics Recycling Event on Saturday, April 23, 2016.
To put an event on the calendar, students, faculty and staff should fill out the short submission form so organizers have all the details related to the. For more information, visit www.fredonia.edu/earthmonth or contact Ms. Laurie (ext. 3796) or Mr. Cloos (ext. 3452).
