Pint−sized preservationists received a fun−filled lesson on how to make their classrooms, their homes and their communities cleaner and greener during an eco−fest at Public School 102.
Billed, “Reduce, Reuse and Recycle,” the day of empowerment transformed the auditorium into a database of demonstrations, workshops and other educational sessions, designed to inform the budding conservationists about how to achieve and maintain a sustainable environment.
Those who brought in their recyclables, including batteries, light bulbs, crayons and outdated cell phones and ink cartridges, received a free raffle ticket.
The eco−fest was part of Earth Day celebrations at the school, 211 72nd Street.
