This Wednesday, Earth Day 2009: Silver Lake Hosts a Ball (of a different sort).
The Silver Lake Chamber of Commerce has been collecting plastic bags this winter/spring and will be tying them together to form a giant plastic ball in Triangle Square (site of the Saturday farmers’ market) on Earth Day. It’s a tribute to the kids’ book the United Nations Environmental Programme put out,
Theo and the Giant Plastic Ball (
download the free PDF of the book here) and an effort to increase awareness of the problems with plastic.
We hope you have a ball celebrating the earth this week.
