It is part of the conservation message from Denver Water, as well as one of the many features of Earth Day Denver on Wednesday April 22, 2015. The theme of displays and demonstrations will be energy, water, waste, transportation and food. Participants may have a chance to test drive an electronic vehicle, such as a BMW or a Tesla, or an all-electric bike. Denver is ranked one of the 10 friendliest metropolitan areas for drivers of electric vehicles, the Denver Business Journal reported in March. Visitors will be able to learn how to start a garden, compost, can or make homemade cleaning products. One of their stops may be a booth sponsored by the Environmental Protection Agency that suggests ways to reduce food waste. A popular part of Denver's Earth Day celebration in the past has been the food trucks. The free event will be open to the public from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Civic Center Park, east of Broadway and Colfax Avenue. Should the weather prove inclement, it will be relocated to the atrium of the Webb Municipal Building across the street at 201 W. Colfax Ave. If the forecast of the Weather Channel is correct, Denver's Earth Day enthusiasts will experience a mostly sunny day on Wednesday with a high of 71 degrees and a 10 percent chance of precipitation. City officials are encouraging people to use green transportation to attend the annual event. Walking, carpooling and jogging are viable options. RTD has numerous bus routes nearby. BikeDenver is supplying a bike parking lot for bicyclists. Sustainability has long been the key for the annual event. Denver began a zero waste policy in 2012, with the help of its partners Denver Recycles and Denver Solid Waste Management. Food trucks and vendors comply with the zero-waste policy.
