WITF and its partners will hold a virtual Earth Day screening of the documentary Penn's Woods: Cradle of Conservation on April 22 at 7:00 p.m. with a Q&A session following.
April 22 marks the 50th Anniversary of Earth Day and to celebrate, WITF's the Cradle of Conservation documentary will take a historic look at how Pennsylvania's natural resources helped transform the state into an industrial powerhouse.
With economic booms and revolutions in natural resource extraction, came an environmental price.
Pennsylvanians set about restoring the state's environmental riches and in the process helped shape the national conservation and environmental movements of the twentieth century.
After the screening PA Parks & Forests Foundation President Marci Mowery will moderate a Q&A session with DCNR Secretary Cindy Adams Dunn, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Historian Mark Madison and Executive Director of Allegheny County Parks Foundation Caren Glotfelty.
They’ll discuss the film and answer your questions.
The program is being presented in collaboration with the PA Parks and Forests Foundation and Earth Day 50 PA with the support of UGI Utilities.
