Welcome to Virtual Earth Day 2023

April 3-28, 2023

Thank you for participating in Earth Day 2023!

It was such a wonderful experience spending the entire month of April with our DFW Metroplex schools and students, sharing science experiments, art activities, educational videos and Q&A sessions with DFW Airport professionals, scientists, and engineers.

We’re always looking to improve DFW Airport Earth Day, relying on feedback from schools and students like you, and would love to learn more about your experience with this year’s virtual event through a quick survey. It’ll take only a few minutes and we are SO grateful for your time and feedback. Thanks!

Answer: The water inside bottled water is safe to drink but buying lots of water that’s in plastic bottles is NOT great for the planet. The real problem is producing and throwing away all that plastic.

"Since global warming is affecting the polar bears, how can we help them to not go extinct?"
