How 85 Institutions Celebrated Earth Day

In celebration of Earth Day, AASHE invited the higher education sustainability community to submit photos to the Campus Sustainability Hub depicting how campuses celebrated. Eighty-five colleges and universities across Canada, Cyprus, Egypt, Hong Kong, Mexico and the United States took a moment to share a snapshot of their recent celebrations! We were inspired by your contributions and wanted to share the story of Earth Day with all of you through the new Campus Sustainability Hub image gallery feature! We hope you enjoy the image gallery as much as we enjoyed putting it together!
