The mission of an upcoming Earth Day Expo at the Groton Public Library is to educate people on how to live more sustainably.
Beyond that, organizers also want them to take direct action that day.
Jason Hine, the owner of The Ditty Bag, a zero-waste shop in Mystic and the lead organizer of the event with Groton conservation groups and the library, said the family-friendly event for people of all ages will feature more than 60 vendors and many interactive experiences to show people ways to make easy changes that could be really important for the planet.
