We love the earth, both as a planet and a place to live. We love it so much that we dedicated an entire day to it. And then if that wasn’t enough, Texans decided to make an entire festival out of celebrating the earth and how much we want to care for it. This weekend, Earth Day Texas will host its fifth annual outdoor festival to bring awareness to environmentally friendly ideas and help you think more in terms of saving the earth rather than crapping on it. The festival goes on all weekend long, beginning at 10 a.m. Friday at Fair Park. Speakers will include Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick and Texas Railroad Commissioner Ryan Sitton. Admission is free. More at earthdaytx.org.
Saturdays, Sundays, 10 a.m. Starts: April 25. Continues through April 26, 2015
