2024 Earth Day/Arbor Day
The Environmental Management Office (EMO) invites you to participate in NASA Langley’s 2024 Earth Day/Arbor Day celebration. We are excited to offer a presentation, Center bird walk, and plastic bag recycling collection. These events are an opportunity for personnel to get involved, learn something new, and connect with the Earth.
Arbor Day is observed each year on the last Friday in April to celebrate the importance of trees in our lives.
Earth Day is an annual event celebrated worldwide on April 22nd to demonstrate support for environmental protection.
