Protecting Our Planet on hoopla

As we keep up our social distancing and other practices to help take care of ourselves and each other, Earth Day is a reminder that we must also take care of our environment. This year’s celebration on April 22 marks the 50th anniversary of the first Earth Day in 1970. While COVID-19 may make it difficult this year to gather for mass actions, there are plenty of activities we can do in our own neighborhoods and backyards that will make a positive difference. Patrons who are interested in learning more about sustainable actions they can take to help make the world a little greener will find plenty of interesting materials in hoopla’s curated Earth Day collections of audiobooks, eBooks, and videos, and you can find assets on our hoopla Resource Center to spread the word.
