Publisher's Note: Earth Day

By Melissa Cercone, Editor/Publisher, Macaroni KID Fairfield-Trumbull-Shelton. CT April 15, 2023

Earth Day is on Saturday, April 22nd! A day to remind people of the importance of preserving and protecting the environment. It is a day to focus on ways to reduce our impact on the planet, such as by reducing our energy consumption, using fewer natural resources, and adopting sustainable practices in our daily lives.

Earth Day provides an opportunity to come together as a global community and take action. It also reminds us that we all have a role to play in protecting our planet and preserving it for future generations.
