Did you celebrate earth day?

David W Johnson, CEO and other Reliabank employees spent this morning planting trees in celebration of Earth Day. These trees will be used as giveaways to customers during a summer promotion. 

Why should every day be Earth day? Forty years after the first Earth Day, the world is in greater peril than ever. While climate change is the greatest challenge of our time, it also presents the greatest opportunity – an unprecedented opportunity to build a healthy, prosperous, clean energy economy now and for the future.

It's up to all of us to help our communities go green.
