– “What Do You Know About H2O?”
• Themes have rotated through earth-friendly topics
– Air
– Plants/Soil
– Recycling
– Water
• ACS provides full range of resources for each theme.13
CCED Collaborations
• Because Earth Day is celebrated by so many groups in almost all parts of the country, it is a perfect event for collaboration.
• You can use this as a way to connect with other environmental groups in your area
• Gives environmental dimension to chemistry
• Can connect through the Earth Day Network: www.earthday.org

Complement to NCW
• CCED is ACS’s second largest outreach event
• Those groups who already celebrate NCW would be prime partners for CCED
15
Additional ACS Environmental Connections
• New ACS resource specifically on climate science: www.acs.org/climatescience
• ACS Committee on EnvironmentalImprovement
• ACS Division of Environmental Chemistry
