Pinole's Earth Day

Earth Day

Earth Day is April 20

Earth Day was founded in 1970 marking the start of the modern environmental movement. Since then, it has become the largest secular holiday celebrated in the world. Earth Day is an opportunity for people to renew their commitment to the stewardship of the land, air and water. The City of Pinole will be celebrating Earth Day throughout the month of April offering various ways to take ACTION by learning different ways to implement climate action into our routine to protect the planet. Planned activities will align with the four sectors of Pinole's Climate Action and Adaptation Plan: Water, Waste Reduction, Transportation, and Energy. The main community event that will take place is the Pinole Earth Walk.

Pinole Earth Walk

On Saturday, April 20th at 9am we will take a walking pledge to protect the planet as a community. Come out and meet your neighbors, spend time with family, get some fresh air, or bring Fido for a walk! The walking path will follow the Pinole Creek trail and loop around Pinole Shores along the Bay Trail. Snacks and refreshments will be provided at the finish line, and there will be kids' activities and local environmental organizations for you to connect with at Fernandez Park. FREE event. Registration is required. All are welcome. 
The first 50 people to register win an eco-friendly gift!
