Monday is Earth Day — the annual celebration, dating to 1970, of our planet and its environment

Created by a United Nations proclamation, Earth Day has grown to include a wide range of events in more than 190 countries. The official theme for 2024 is "Planet vs. Plastics." The day, April 22, also has led to the designation of April as Earth Month.

Mainers and Maine businesses have long strived to protect the natural environment of the state and of the world.

One recent example: Allagash Brewing Co., based in Portland, has teamed up with Patagonia Provisions, the outdoor clothing maker's food and beverage business, to make a limited-edition beer from organic ingredients including Kernza. That's the trademarked name for a perennial grain, harvested from a form of wheatgrass, with long roots that protect soil from erosion, minimize the need for tilling, and help sequester carbon.
