Encinitas Environment Day is the embodiment of "Think globally, Act locally." This fair showcases the environmental efforts and opportunities within the city of Encinitas by local government agencies, environmental organizations (such as Surfrider, Sierra Club, San Elijo Lagoon Conservancy, etc.) and local businesses (such as EDCO, Dudek & many others).

The fair also includes educational and interactive activities such as a pedal-powered smoothie maker (Kids pedal-power a smoothie blender while learning how much power is needed for everyday appliances), paper-making, recycled art, Dr. Zoolittle of the world-famous San Diego Zoo, the Birch Aquarium, and more, as well as local music and organic food.

Get entered into a free raffle for prizes such as a bicycle for walking or riding a bike there! (There is an Encinitas bike ride the morning of 6/6/10). And, help clean a local beach or Cottonwood Creek!

This event is fun, but packs a punch. Those who attend are serious about the environment. And, you can see free environmentally-themed films, speakers, workshops, and exhibits at the new, environmentally-designed Encinitas Library during Green Spring Encinitas
