Fat Tuesday – Mardi Gras
Tuesday will be the day before Ash Wednesday and the start of the season of Lent. Mardi Gras is the last hoorah and is celebrated throughout the world with feasting, partying, and general indulgence. In New Orleans revelers throw and collect purple, green, and gold beads.
Students get a chance to examine the monetary and environmental cost of this bead exuberance with our unit pricing and recycling activity.
