Warm up to nature April 22, 2007 at Santa Barbara's annual South Coast Earth Day Festival, 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., at the County Courthouse, 1100 Anacapa St.

Santa Barbara, home to the nation's first Earth Day festival, always celebrates the day in grand fashion. This year's festival will include a photo exhibit on global warming, a green car show, an energy village displaying alternative power sources and activities for children.

The photo exhibit, a 900-foot display focusing on polar bears, is being billed as the world's largest devoted to global warming.

The photos are the culmination of three years of work by Howard Ruby, a nature photographer and chairman of Oakwood Corporate Housing.

Where am I?

The French built this place before the Americans took it over. There are a couple of big lakes next door.
