Don updated our Club on the District's Environment Committee.  The Environment was added on July 1, 2021 as the Seventh Area of Focus for Rotary.   Creating a distinct area of focus to support the environment gives Rotary members even more ways to bring about positive change in the world and increase our impact.  Rotary service projects very often have had an environmental aspect – putting a new focus on the environment is a natural progression.
 
Interesting fact - Rotary’s first service project was an environmental one in Chicago - the installation of a public washroom in Chicago in 1917.
