NCSU Earth Week 2008: Energy, Environment, Everyone

Earth Day at NCSU is a large celebration of environmental awareness conducted in the NC State University Brickyard in late April of each year. Planning for Earth Day is a massive undertaking and we welcome involvement from all students, faculty and staff. This WolfWiki was established to assist in the dissemination of information (such as minutes and committee reports) to the larger group. Please feel free to contribute!
