Every day is Earth Day

Earth Day is the one day when people are encouraged to pick up trash from neighborhoods, beaches, rivers, lakes, and parks. But it doesn't have to be the only day. Please consider doing a little extra today — HRT's New Program For Earth Day - Every Day. If your stop is normally clean, then consider planting a tree in your own yard. Working together, we can improve the health and well-being of our communities.
