The first "Earth Day" celebration was in 1970.  This year's celebration (Saturday, April 22, 2017) will be remarkable in Fort Worth for two major events:  the Main Street Arts Festival downtown and the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure marathon at Clearfork.  What with visitors and traffic, it's going to be a busy and crowded Saturday.

The Fort Worth Bicycling Association was also founded on that Earth Day back in 1970.

Not directly connect to Fort Worth, but a great step forward - Kroger to phase out plastic bags.

 

As one of their regular, almost go to shoppers, this is long over due.  I request paper when shopping.

We keep reusable bags on hand and try to re-use them as much as possible.  I always reuse plastic bags either for taking my lunch to work as liners in bathroom trash cans as opposed to buying small trash bags.

Need a reason to vote, in the inconceivable possibility that you do not have one, remember those who deny Climate Change, most of whom are Baby Boomers like me; and cast your vote accordingly.  I will likely escape this catastrophe, but I am sure some of you will not!
