Matthew's actions
Action Track: Earth Day Together!
Earth Day Action: Research and Support Local Organizations
I will spend 120 minutes researching local organizations and businesses in my community, then support one of them by writing a testimonial or positive review, ordering curbside, making a donation to my favorite nonprofit, or supporting them in another way.
Action Track: Earth Day Together!
Virtual Earth Day lecture with Denise Coogan, Subaru USA
Ms. Coogan will give a talk titled "Earth Day 50: Zero Landfill in Auto Manufacturing and National Parks” which describes Subaru’s efforts to become the first “zero landfill” automotive assembly facility in the world, a goal achieved over ten years ago. Per Ms. Coogan, that talk offers “an examination of developing a zero landfill program; how reduce, reuse, and recycle can be environmentally and financially successful.” She will also explain “the principles needed for a waste reduction program to work in manufacturing and how those principles were transferred to the national park service.”
