Celebrate Earth Day at the Phoenix Zoo

There's probably no better place to celebrate Earth Day than at the Phoenix Zoo. After all, it's a great chance to see just how much we are all dependent upon each other. From plants to animals to humans, the Phoenix Zoo is at the forefront of helping to create a more sustainable home for all of us. Earth Day may only come once a year, but the Phoenix Zoo celebrated all year long.
