The Celebrating Sustainability Fair kicked-off Stanford’s Knowledge to Action: A Day of Events in Celebration of Earth Day, bringing together students, staff and faculty from throughout all parts of campus to learn about and engage with the University’s various sustainability partners. The Water Planning & Stewardship (WP&S) team hosted two tables. One table focused on environmental and water stewardship and the other focused on efficiency and conservation.

The WP&S team also collaborated with Grounds Services and Land Use and Environmental Planning  to organize the first Earth Day Service events at three of Stanford’s important landscapes: the Arizona Garden, the Water Wise Garden, and in the Foothills. Community volunteers braved rainfalls and harsh winds to perform fieldwork to improve campus landscape and help conservation efforts.
