How To Celebrate Earth Day

What did you do for earth day? For the second half of my school day, I attend the Macomb Mathematics Science Technology Center (MMSTC for short ). Today was Earth Day, so the teachers put off their lesson plans and we celebrated. Just how did we celebrate? Due to my occasional habit of rambling on, I’ve decided to make a list to tell you:

• Picked up trash throughout the community surrounding the school.
• Ate hot dogs.
• Participated in environment-related activities like riding in an electric quadricycle, flying kites, decorating eco-friendly bags, and planting trees.
• Ate chips.
• Socialized with friends we don’t usually see during the day.
• Ate more food.

If you think picking up trash is uninteresting, then how about bringing in a 3 meter long rusted bar of metal? Other large objects were also brought in, and we left saplings on people’s doorsteps as we passed them (that’s right, today we took the role of the Tree Fairy!).
