Boston Under Water Climate Festival

without comments

I am one of the organizers of this event, which will be the biggest of all the Boston-area events planned for the October 24th Global Day of Climate Action.  Your support and help in getting the word out, and coming to the event, would be much appreciated.  Together, we can make our leaders understand that immediate action is needed to greenhouse gas emissions to safe levels.

Join us at the Boston Under Water Climate Festival and help make the the International Day of Climate Action a historic day.
