Sunday is Earth Day–but how are you going to celebrate? Here's a look at some great green events and ideas happening in Dearborn:

Learn About Burning Rivers

Once upon a time, the Rouge River caught on fire. This Earth Day, learn about efforts to save this and other polluted rivers. At the Henry Ford Centennial Library, Dr. John Hartig will give a presentation on his award-winning book titled Burning Rivers: Revival of Four Urban-Industrial Rivers that Caught on Fire. The free talk starts at 3 p.m.

Eat Pancakes for the Planet

Eat good food and save the earth simultaneously. This event, hosted at the University of Michigan-Dearborn, will be held April 21 at 9 a.m. Funds raised will go to support children’s outdoor environmental education. An entrance fee of $5 gets you a meal of pancakes topped with 100 percent pure maple syrup–made from maple trees on campus.
