Today on the quad ISU students celebrated Earth Day! Informational booths, tables, posters, signs, t-shirts, and much more were set up for students to visit during the day and in between classes. Something that caught my eye were the yards of string that hung from tree to tree, which had plastic water bottles and cardboard cutouts hanging from them. Each cardboard cutout had facts about recycling written on them. The cardboard cut out pictured says, “If all our newspaper was recycled, we could save about 250,000,000 trees each year!”
