Earth Day celebrations are sort of like a sampler for people who want to explore all the ways they might help make the world greener. Around southern Maine this year, Earth Day events include cleanups in parks or along beaches, plus family festivals where you can learn about composting, recycling, electric buses and electric bikes. There are also films with outdoor or environmental themes, hikes and outings, and story times for kids. Earth Day is Saturday. Here are some ways to celebrate.
