May is a month of a lot of celebration. May is National Bike Month and May 19th to 25th is Public Works week. To recognize both, Sustainability Division staff participated in the County of Ventura Public Works Agency’s Public Works Day on Tuesday, May 21st.
Sustainability Division staff engaged with over 1800 students at their booth where an e-bike and an electric vehicle were on display. Children got to hear about how electric vehicles work and how to charge them. The e-bike station taught children about the importance to the environment and to one’s health when one bikes instead of using a gas-powered vehicle.
Lastly, children were asked questions on what they can do to help the environment and were rewarded with essential swag to help them with their mission like reusable utensils and a reusable bag.
