SUMMARY:Earth Day 2020
DESCRIPTION:The coronavirus pandemic has upended our lives. Just a week or so ago\, individuals in countries around the world were going to bars\, seeing movies with friends and\, really\, just going about business as usual. Now\, all that has changed. \nAmid the COVID-19 outbreak\, many health experts and government officials are suggesting\, and sometimes mandating\, that we practice social distancing to flatten the curve of the outbreak — preventing a surge of infected patients that overwhelm our hospitals. In other words\, that means we stay at home and limit nearly all in-person social interactions. \nBut as we exercise our individual and collective responsibility to reduce viral transmissions to preserve human health\, we can still exercise our responsibility to act for environmental health. We can use this solitary time to reassess our current habits and develop new ones that are better for the planet. Below are 11 ways to take action for the planet while social distancing — we hope they’ll stick\, even after our global health crisis subsides. \nCheck out 11 actions you can take here.

SUMMARY:The Joy of Garden-based Education
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Cathy Law\nDate and time: Wednesday\, April 8th\, 2020\, 7:30 p.m. EST \n \nKids are just happier when they are outside learning. Using mother nature as a laboratory setting is an incredible way to engage students in first-hand study of the principles of ecology\, geology\, and climate change. You will learn the fascinating science behind the social\, psychological and physiological benefits of using gardens to teach. Besides\, donning a big grin\, students learn scientific concepts more\neffectively when performing hands-on investigations outside so their grades soar. Outdoor based education is a sure way to nurture global citizens for the stewardship of our planet. You can’t go green without going teen! \nCathy Law teaches Biology\, Earth Science\, and Field Biology at New Paltz High School in New Paltz\, New York. She and her students started the Courtyard Gardens twelve years ago; it features over 200different kinds of plants in 15 themed garden zones. The mission of the garden is to create an outdoor learning center dedicated to understanding and improving the environment and to enable learning that is problem-based and interdisciplinary.

SUMMARY:SAGE COVID-19 Response Survey
DESCRIPTION:For years\, SAGE has coached our volunteers to discover their highest goals and to lead with courage and heart in times of adversity and when the path is unclear. SAGE has reflected on its own goal to inspire seniors to give forward so that younger and future generations can thrive. We are heartbroken by the pandemic and distraught by how this challenge is impeding progress on vital social movements. We also know that we must continue to convene\, engage the wisdom of elders\, and work across generations to create opportunity for those who follow in our footsteps. \nPlease fill out this brief survey to let us know how we could be supportive for our community during this public health emergency. Please share any ideas for helpful\, uplifting\, or thought-provoking resources\, stories and videos that we could share through social media.
