It’s that time of year again, time to celebrate Earth Day 2005.

While park hopping around Birmingham this weekend, I ran into the EarthFest celebration at Homewood Park.

There were some interesting and dedicated people there, including representatives of the Friends of the Locust Fork and The Alabama Rivers Alliance.

I also met Claire Rumore, an interesting author who has written a book about Feng Shui and has a Web site devoted to promoting interesting retreats to sooth the soul. The philosophy behind Sacred Fire Journies is that “the journey is the destination.”

For more local events, here’s a pretty good calendar.

In today’s Birmingham News there’s a little story about the local effort. As much as we all hate their ugly, rolling, popping Newhouse Web site, here’s the link anyway.
