Earth Day is officially this Friday, but a county-wide celebration will start on Thursday at Crossroads at Big Creek. The Climate Change Coalition of Door County and Crossroads are presenting a screening of the film “Kiss the Ground”. Narrated and featuring Woody Harrelson, Kiss the Ground is 2020 documentary that addresses ways to reverse the damage to soils worldwide. Wayne Kudick of Fish Creek says efforts around the globe represented by Earth Day go beyond a one-day celebration.
The free movie will be shown at 6:30 pm Thursday in the Collins Learning Center at Crossroads at Big Creek. Earth Day was started in 1970 by Wisconsin Governor Gaylord Nelson. You can find the calendar of events planned for this weekend and Earth Day in Door County below.
