Description:
A northern Michigan American Indian tribe is a vital part of an environmental army of over 400 volunteers that continued to do their part to protect the environment with a passion in 2007. The Earth Keepers participated in numerous projects including the third Earth Day Clean Sweep in April 2007 and an energy summit plus the creation of the Boreal Chamber Symphony that raised thousands of dollars during a benefit concert to protect Lake Superior. The Keweenaw Bay Indian Community in Baraga has been with the Earth Keepers from the start including participating in annual clean sweeps that have rid the planet of over 370 tons of household poisons and other waste most of which was recycled. The Earth Keepers have proven that every person can make a difference in their own community. The nine faith communities involved with the Earth Keepers are Catholic Presbyterian Episcopal Jewish Lutheran Universalist Unitarian United Methodist Church Bahai and Zen Buddhist. The November 2007 issue of Lake Superior Magazine honors the outcome of numerous Earth Keeper projects. Earth Keeper projects involve more than 400 volunteers from nine faith communities with over 140 churches and temples and the Keweenaw Bay Indian Community plus youth of all ages. The KBIC has also participated in a sister project that is restoring wild rice to seven remote lakes and streams in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Earth Keeper Initiative volunteer media advisor Greg Peterson reports on another successful year cleaning the environment in northern Michigan and protecting Lake Superior.
