1 Mid-Columbia Earth Month Recap 2013 Recap
2 This is the last year that the City of Richland will be in charge of coordinating Earth Month What began in 1996 as a one day event to educate citizens about local environmental issues, will end as a month (plus) long focus on protection, preserving and conserving our environment and natural resources. Through environmental activities, events, workshops and volunteer opportunities, this event will stand on its own, by the many schools, businesses, organizations, groups and individuals who continue to support it. Compiling the statistics is one of the hardest parts of the event. Take a look at what was submitted for 2013!
