Earth Day Celebration 2019

On a rainy Friday April 19th, 2019, Eco Action held their annual Earth Day Celebration in the HUB Robeson center from 3-8 pm.

Tables from environmentally conscious organizations throughout Penn State and the State College community were present. Organizations included the Vegetarian Club, the Student Farm, Lion Launchpad, Habitat for Humanity, and the Sierra Club.

The vegetarian club showcases the impact that conventional animal farming has on our global resource expenditure. Tasty fish meat alternatives were provided for participants!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The night ended with a performance by two local bands. One of the members in the first band, Low Jack, is an Eco Action alumni!

Although the event was smaller than previous years, Eco Action is still very much involved with spreading sustainability and environmentally conscious initiatives within the University and beyond- not just on Earth Day, but every day.

We are looking forward to next Earth Day to celebrate the 50th anniversary of this wonderful tradition!
