To honor Earth Month and localize the climate crisis, Evanston Public Library is hosting several community climate activism events in April, according to a Tuesday news release.
EPL is partnering with the city’s Office of Sustainability, Citizens’ Greener Evanston and several other organizations as part of its Climate Resilient Communities Series.
On Earth Day, April 22, the library will host a community discussion on waste prevention and a “Lunch-and-Learn” event centered on sustainable deconstruction and waste management.
The library is also offering a Spanish language workshop on recycling and composting on April 8. Spanish-speaking residents can pick up a “KIT de preparación ante clima extremo: Frío, Calor e Inundaciones,” a kit that educates residents on ways to protect themselves from extreme weather, on April 30.
