On April 19 from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m., the more than 50 organizations of the Pittsburgh Earth Week Coalition will hold a virtual Teach-In live on YouTube to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Earth Day.

“We the people have a right to clean air, pure water and to the preservation of the natural, scenic, historic and esthetic values of the environment.” [Pennsylvania’s Environmental Rights Amendment]

And like many of you, Coalition members are staying at home to keep those on the frontlines a chance to fight the Covid-19 virus.

At the same time, the 50th Anniversary of Earth Day offers everyone an opportunity to renew our commitment to our planet.

The Coalition will declare a climate emergency and call on everyone to help fight the expansion of petrochemicals, industrial pollution and the harm that both inflict on people in the Pittsburgh region.
