CIEDM-GreenNet Workshop on Land & Water
California Institute of Environmental Design & Management (CIEDM) in partner with GreenNet Group will host a workshop on the subject of Land & Water. The workshop will start with a presentation by Dr. Edward Huang on the origin & nature of World Water Monitoring Day, National Public Lands Day, National Park(ing) Day, International Day for Ozone Layer Preservation & International Car Free Day (all happened around the week of September 19) in the context of climate change & global warming. Then Dr. Huang will lead a tour of the Arcadia EcoHome, a certified green building w/ a certified wildlife habitat, and then lead a "walkup & pickup" session at the end to pick up trash & pull up weed along the public streets from Arcadia EcoHome to Camino Grove Park via Camino Groave Elementary School.
