Every day at the OCDAC office building is Earth Day

..."Every day at the office building is Earth Day. OCDAC celebrates Earth Day each day of the year. Our office electricity and lighting is produced via photovoltaic array system. Meaning powered by sunshine through the use of solar cells. Therefore the light we use to see day and night, the computers we use to communicate and exercise our mission and vision statements, and the refrigerator and microwave we use to feed from are all powered by a clean energy source that don't contribute to the deluge of contaminants already in the air.
