Do you know what natural resource glass is made from? Did you know that everything we use in our daily lives comes from the earth? Grades of Green welcomes you to play our Natural Resources Matching Game! Players choose from a variety of manmade items and guess which natural resource it comes from. Our Natural Resources Matching Game is a fun and quick activity that teaches players the importance of reducing, reusing, and recycling manmade products in order to reduce our impact on the planet.

Grades of Green kicked off earth month by hosting fun and educational booths at multiple outreach events! At the Bixby Knolls Earth Day event, Grades of Green staff and Youth Corps Eco-Leadership students invited guests to make recycled gift tags. This year the event showcased electric vehicles, rain barrels, and green demonstrations. The event was made complete by free environmentally friendly giveaways and free paper shredding!

At the LA County Sanitation District Earth Day event, Grades of Green staff played the Natural Resources Matching Game with guests while also encouraging people to take on an environmental pledge to help the planet. With everything from water reclamation plant and materials recovery facility tours to free shower buckets and reusable bag handouts, the LA County Sanitation District Earth Day event inspired thousands of people to do their part to help the environment.
