Stop to smell the roses: UW’s Earth Fest showcases sustainability, creativity

First established as a national holiday in 1970, Earth Day offers a moment to reflect on the health and beauty of the natural world. It is an excellent reason for millions of Americans to step outside and breathe in the fresh air. For University of Wisconsin students, it can be much more. This week heralds UW’s second annual Earth Fest, a week-long celebration of the Earth.
