Step in to the blog time machine or click here to go back to June
2007. A group of folks held a kick off event right here in Pittsburgh for a Year long Your Environmental Road Trip (aka YERT).
Well it is a whole year later and the YERT crew is coming home. to celebrate there is a family friendly FREE party filled with fun for everyone at the very appropriate venue of the Rachel Carson Homestead.

Rachel Carson Homestead
- Come learn about their trip to all 50 states where they interviewed over 800 people about environmentally pressing issues.
- I am intrigued by this statement “We’ll also have ALL of our garbage from the year on display for you to admire or critique if you like.” – I can’t really imagine what it would be like to bring my trash along with me.
- The infamous “Bag Monster” will make an appearance for the kids.
Check out the YERT blog for lots more info from their trip – inlcuding the story of the 4th YERT Member – Baby Bailey who was born on July 19th!
