John Francis's Earth Day Planetwalk

Coinciding with Earth Day and the trade paperback release of Planetwalker, author Dr. John Francis, with his nonprofit educational organization Planetwalk, is conducting a 5-day expedition in East Central Ohio, April 22-27, 2009, during which time about 12 participants will continue to develop the environmental curriculum, Planetlines.

The goal of the walk that began from Cape May in 2005 is to raise awareness of the human environment and how each person can make the difference in preserving Planet Earth. On April 23, Dr. Francis will make a live satellite presentation from the road to the Missouri State University Public Affairs Conference on Sustainability in Springfield.
