2025 Earth Day Celebration on Science Center Plaza

Join the Harvard Office for Sustainability and Harvard Common Spaces for an Earth Day Festival on Tuesday, April 22, 2025 from 12 to 2 pm at the Science Center Plaza.

• Bring everyday items you no longer need and pick up stuff for free at a Freecycle hosted by Harvard Recycling. No donation is required to shop!
• Have electronics to recycle? Harvard University Information Technology will collect them. See electronic waste items HUIT can accept. Please note lithium batteries should be taped and there should be no leaking or oversized batteries.
• Need to transfer data from old tech? IT security support staff will collect and repurpose equipment and cords for outdated data formats (like floppy drives and zip drives) and provide data transfer services. Transfer the data from your outdated technology onto new storage devices (that you provide), or onto cloud services like SharePoint and g.harvard spaces. The team can also help identify data types, assess old encryption methods, and evaluate drive viability.
• Collect your plastic bags and bring them to our plastic film recycling station.
• Bring your bike to be checked up and commute safely and sustainably back home.
• Learn from and connect with Harvard groups tabling at the event.
