The County celebrated Earth Day Friday with an in-person fair at the County Operations Center. Attendees learned ways to help protect and improve the environment and address climate change with everyday actions.
From scavenger hunts for bugs to the County’s Climate Action Plan Update, which explains how the County is working to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the unincorporated parts of the County, attendees had fun learning new ways to address climate change and help protect the environment.
In addition to Friday’s event at the COC, a variety of other County Earth Day events are also scheduled to take place on Earth Day, Saturday, April 22 with the County’s Department of Parks and Recreation. Those include 14 park beautification projects at parks across the County, three nature discovery tables, and three park meetups, which include a ranger-led nature hike at a pond, a yoga class on a ranch and an Earth Day arts & crafts activity in a community center.
