About earthday365
MISSION: To inspire and mobilize a collaborative movement towards an equitable and environmentally sustainable St. Louis region – every day.
PROGRAMS: The St. Louis Earth Day Festival is just one of several programs that our organization manages throughout the year. Read more about the exciting work we do to make Earth Day every day.
What started as the region’s first large-scale event recycling program has grown into a popular and widely-utilized event-greening service offering comprehensive consultancy and implementation services. Our goal is to reduce the negative environmental impact of events and festivals, principally by reducing and recycling a portion of the waste they generate.
This program is committed to working with St. Louis restaurants to reduce their environmental impact. The GDA considers all areas of operations and puts strong emphasis on reducing, recycling and composting restaurant waste as well as sourcing sustainable food, to-go ware and cleaning supplies. www.greendiningalliance.org
This Virtual Earth Day Festival has been brought to you by the staff of earthday365.
