Get Involved: Earth Month Events Invite Campus to Connect with Sustainability
Volunteers from Epsilon Eta have planted trees on campus donated by the Tree Canopy Expansion Project, a project funded by the Campus Sustainability Fund. The Tree Canopy Expansion Project will continue to plant trees in strategic locations across campus in late April.

The University of Arizona is celebrating Earth Month throughout April with a variety of events focused on sustainability, environmental awareness and community engagement. From an Earth Day 5K to events highlighting internship and career opportunities in sustainability fields, students, faculty and staff are invited to explore ways to connect with and care for the environment.
In addition to public Earth Month events, a special Arbor Day tree planting event led by the Tree Canopy Expansion Project is planned on campus. The project is a partnership between the Office of Sustainability and University Facilities Services. While the planting event itself is private, the long-term benefits will be shared across the campus community.
Supported by the Campus Sustainability Fund, the Tree Canopy Expansion Project focuses on increasing tree canopy in high-traffic areas where additional shade can have the greatest impact.
