First celebrated on April 22, 1970, Earth Day has become a worldwide event in support of protecting the environment. This year, thousands of events were planned globally with more than 193 countries taking part.
As part of the TCPS Earth Day celebration, the TCPS Green Club held an Earth Day Workshop on April 22nd. The official theme of this year’s Earth Day is “Invest in Our Planet: What We Can Do to Help Create a Sustainable Future.” During the workshop, the Green Club gave a presentation about some of the ways we can be more eco-friendly in our daily lives. Students also participated in some fun activities about sustainability, one of which was calculating our environmental footprint and growing plants to lessen its effects!
A very special thank you to Jolene U., Maliha H., and Binjian Y., for demonstrating such initiative and leadership; the workshop was educational, creative and fun.
