On April 22, St. Mary’s took
part in a natiomvide Environ
mental Action Day, or Earth Day.
Students yvho visited the booth
111 Jjower Sniedes saw many pos-
ters and books pertaining to the
problem of pollution. Most of the
students shoyv that they are m
this campaign against pollution
by wearing the ECOS buttons and
by reading the various materials
that yvere being distributed. Some
of the printed literature dealt yvitli
constructive methods of eonser-
y-ation, as yvell as the danger of
over-population.
The observance of Earth Day-
marked tlie beginning of St
Mary’s interest in our “environ
mental crisis.” For those students
yvho are interested in positive ac
tion right noyv, there are many
conservation groups in existence
yvhich need youthful support, .such
as The Nature Consery-ancy-, Tlie
Niitional Wildlife Federation. The
Wilderness Society-, Friends of the
Earth, The Sierra Club, and Zero
Poinilatioii Groyvth. Bight yvith-
in Raleigh, students can yvork
yvith other civic groups and find
yvay-.s to improve our ciiviroii-
ment. Earth Day- marked a begin
ning at St. ilary-’s, and yve the
students must continue to aetively-
sup])ort the iirograms dealing
with pollution. Let us take the
initiative in combating pollution
and conserving our natural re
sources.
