Earth Fair: Trashpocolypse
April 11th, 10-3 PM, Bayramian Lawn
Earth Fair is an annual event hosted by Associated Student Productions that celebrate Earth Day. The ultimate goal of Earth Fair is to educate students in interactive and innovative ways about how to sustain and care for our planet Earth. Each year the theme is changed to capture attention and focus the event on the prominent environmental issues facing our society. The largest component of Earth Fair is the 30 to 40 on-campus, local, and outside vendors that are relevant to the Earth Fair theme and impact student learning. Local and outside vendors show students that goods and services that consumers buy everyday can be bought from companies that have less of a carbon footprint. CSUN departments and auxiliaries provide students the opportunity to learn about the sustainable developments the campus has implemented in day to day activities.
