Students for Sustainability at the University of Arizona, is excited to host

Earth Day 2011: Be the Solution!

Our society is on the path to transitioning into one that embraces sustainability, pursues renewable forms of energy, and values environmental stewardship. As such, Earth Day is no longer viewed as a fringe celebration, rather it is a day where all generations can gather to learn about and discuss relevant issues, brainstorm innovative solutions and create partnerships.

Earth Day 2011 aims to include student groups, the UA campus community and the Tucson community. Through a broad audience base and a variety of activities, we will emphasize the need of not only environmental education and activism but the development of future leaders in all generations. Through student and professional partnerships, we aim to bridge the expertise of the community and the unbridled enthusiasm and energy of young professionals in pursuit of innovative solutions.

This year the event is planned to take place on the UA mall, starting at Old Main. This move will encourage larger participation by UA students and community, while remaining accessible to the Tucson community and schools.

Last year, we successfully hosted Earth Day 2010 on UA Mall with an attendance of over 2,000 community members and students. Similar to last year, Earth Day 2010 will be entirely planned and hosted by Students for Sustainability. Help us make this year memorable for the wildcat community as we work together to BE THE SOLUTION!
