Last week NKU student Jesse Byerly premiered his short documentary about the recent mountain witness tour he and other members of NKU Environmentally Concerned Organization of Students (ECOS) took with Northern Kentucky chapter. The video premeired at a potluck holiday party that ECOS held to celebrate the end of the fall semester.
The celebration had over a dozen people come out to share in food, enjoy the film, and discussion about the long term impact of mountaintop removal. The group committed to helping lobby legislators to promote sustainable energy, invesetment in Appalachia, and clean water in the coming general assembly, and especially learning more about I Love Mountains Day.
