How Green is our (Pinole) Valley?--The Earth Team has part of Pinole Valley student experience for many years, but have been missing on our campus until now. We are fortunate to have the cooperation of the agency, the School District and the City of Pinole to bring back the program after a year's hiatus. Students gravitate toward environmental issues and the Earth Team is an opportunity to get hands on, and do something about helping the planet. We have a handful of summer internships and paid work for students and at the same time, want to see more club and student action on a voluntary basis as well. We are looking at everything from creek restoration to trash surveys, all in the name of doing better by our campus and our community. The Earth Team will have tables out all of next week and will be actively recruiting new students to take up the cause. The Earth's battle is everyone's, here's your chance to make your voice heard and help our planet
