Please come celebrate all that Earth provides on April 22nd at the biggest Earth Day Fair ever on WashingtonState University’s Terrell Mall. This year there will be at least 25 Washington and Idaho community groups and WSU student groups that are involved in the sustainability of Earth tabling on The Mall. In addition to all the conscious groups that will be tabling and informing students, faculty, staff, and the public community of their sustainability-related mission, there will be an open-microphone for anyone to freely speak about the environment, other open-mic entertainment, and free “Earth Week 2014”: sustainable coffee mugs, magnets, t-shirts, and drawstring bags for visiting some of the Earth Day Fair group tables and learning about what they are all about. There will be many opportunities to get involved in the conservation, preservation, and restoration of Earth through the 25 groups that will be there. The WSU Earth Day Fair is sponsored by the ASWSU Environmental Sustainability Alliance and WSU Environmental Science Club. We truly hope to see there!
In celebration of Indigenous Peoples Day (Monday, October 13), the Washington State University (WSU) Clearinghouse on Native Teaching and Learning will feature the film The Lost Fish, jointly produced by the Columbia River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission and Freshwaters Illustrated and selected for the EcoFilm Festival. Also honoring the memory of the late Elmer Crow of the Nez Perce Tribe, the movie explores the importance of the lamprey eel to the Plateau tribes and tribal actions to ensure that these ancient fish return to their native rivers and streams throughout the Columbia River Basin. Share an evening celebrating the contemporary lives of Indigenous people from our region, through this film shown on Monday, October 13, from 5:30 to 7:30 pm in WSU’s Cleveland Hall Room 30W. Please call 509-335-3478 with questions.
