Green Columbus also works to provide forums and organize events with goals of a cleaner environment. Join Green Columbus and other businesses, volunteers and like-minded individuals at the nation’s largest Earth Day volunteer effort. This year’s Earth Day celebrations offer volunteer opportunities April 14-15 at work sites around the region, cleaning up and planting new life into the areas. Businesses and individuals can also donate and sponsor the events or sites or spread the word by hanging posters and promoting the event online. The events culminate with a citywide celebration on April 21 at Columbus Commons. Join your friends and neighbors downtown for live music and a silent auction of art pieces submitted by local artists.
