The First Earth Day, April 22, 1970, at NIU

From the April 22, 2020, MidWeek (DeKalb County, Illinois)  "Looking Back."

1970. 50 Years Ago.

"A science class at the NIU Lab School in observation of 'Earth Day,'  buried pollution and other evils of the world this morning.

"The group had a funeral march through NIU's campus and later buried the coffin near the lab school."

Wonder whatever happened to it?
