Earth Month

Each year UNMC and Nebraska Medicine celebrate Earth Day by hosting a month’s worth of events, know as Earth Month.  We aim to provide events that are fun, educational, improve health and always leave the earth a better place to live!  We also use this time to celebrate Nebraska’s own Arbor Day!

Earth Month 2025

April 22 is Earth Day, and the med center will be celebrating all April long! Check out the list below to learn how to participate in Earth Month celebrations. The list will be updated and expanded once event details are finalized.
