Recycle Challenge: April 1 to April 30, 2023
In honor of Earth Day, recycle eligible plastic bottles, cans or glass for 5 cent deposit at your local supermarket. Take a photo of your receipt and upload it to our website. For every 20 bottles recycled, you earn 1 hour of service. Donate the money to your favorite charity.
Upload photo of bottle return receipt here: https://form.jotform.com/230724705943154
Teens in grades 9-12 can earn community service/volunteer hours by reading a book and submitting a written review. Each review we approve counts as an hour of community service. Teens can earn up to 8 hours each school year from this project.
Submit your reviews online or stop by the Teen Desk for a printed form.

GLOBE Observer
What is GLOBE Observer?
1) A citizen science app allowing volunteers in GLOBE countries to take observations and contribute to the Global Learning and Observations to Benefit the Environment (GLOBE) community
2) A way to collect data to track changes in the environment in support of Earth system science research, and interpret NASA and other satellite data
3) An open data set available to scientists, and supporting students of all ages in doing real scientific research through the GLOBE Program
Download the app and follow the instructions to get started. Always follow guidelines from your local officials, and only participate in GLOBE activities or use the GLOBE Observer app if it is safe to do so.
