- Later at 11 a.m., Governor Roy Cooper is talking about Earth Day and its importance to the state at the Craggy Gardens Picnic Area on the Blue Ridge Parkway.
This past weekend, some events were postponed or canceled because of weather, including the Hillsborough Climate Challenge's celebration and Raleigh's Earth Day Extravaganza.

- Conserve energy at home
- Plant a pollinator-friendly garden
- Go for a litter walk

Environmental advocates also encourage us to continue those activities every day, not just on Earth Day.
