Happy Earth Day!

Forty years after the first Earth Day, the world is in greater peril than ever. While climate change is the greatest challenge of our time, it also presents the greatest opportunity – an unprecedented opportunity to build a healthy, prosperous, clean energy economy now and for the future.

Looking for ways to make an impact? Click HERE for a few ideas and check The Flagpole for local activities, including the New Earth Day Festival.

As you go about your day, take this quote with you from the great Dr. Seuss:

Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot,
nothing is going to get better. It's not. - The Lorax
