Welcome to The Earth Day Groceries Project, one of the oldest and largest educational activities coordinated on the Internet. In 1999, thousands of school children from nearly 1,200 schools decorated almost 400,000 paper grocery bags to celebrate Earth Day and increase environmental awareness. These bags were passed out (filled with groceries) to shoppers at grocery stores on Earth Day. At this site you can read all the reports from participating schools, find out how to participate in 2001, and see some pictures of students at work on the project. We hope you can join in on Earth Day, April 22, 2001!
