Forty-six years ago, the first Earth Day celebration began. On that day at OSU, students put together a series of events, participating in this landmark date. While Earth Day-related festivities have not occurred every year since, our annual celebration has been going strong for what will be the 16th consecutive year this year!
Beyond Earth Day is a 2-week celebration (April 18-29, 2016) with fun and educational events focused on various holistic sustainability issues, put on by groups from both the campus and greater Corvallis community. Please see a full line-up of events on the Beyond Earth Day website: http://tiny.cc/earth-calendar.
The primary organizers and sponsors of Beyond Earth Day are Campus Recycling, the Student Sustainability Initiative and the Sustainability Office. Participating groups for 2016 include OSU student groups and departments, local nonprofits, and government agencies. See the list of participating organizations here.
