Important Announcements
CURRENT INFORMATION: go to our Facebook group "Waco Friends of the Climate."
1) Beginning Jan. 2025, our focus has been on resistance to Donald Trump, since his policies are our greatest threat to the climate. Thus, we are not having monthly meetings at this time. We hope to hold monthly meetings in the future. Visit our Facebook group for current activities, Waco Friends of the Climate. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1330231820335851
2) Our role in the resistance includes a weekly protest at the pedestrian bridge in Waco, Valley Mills Dr. & Bagby Avenue, each Sunday, 1:00pm-2:30pm. We began the protest in March 2025 and it has been carried on weekly for over one year. We provide huge, highly visible banners. Please join us. RESISTING FASCISM, ONE SUNDAY AT A TIME.

TAKE ACTION NOW: Rooftop Solar at the Silos
Please join us in strongly encouraging Chip and Joanna to install solar
panels on their empire in Waco. The City of Waco is in the process of
approving about $1 million in TIF funds for Magnolia. At a recent Council
meeting we have requested that the City require Magnolia to do rooftop solar in
order to receive these TIF funds. And if the City cannot legally require
this, that the City strongly insist that they install a photovoltaic
system. To reinforce this, we ask that each member send a message to the
Magnolia folks also requesting they do a solar installation. Given the
large following of Magnolia, we think it likely that homeowners in Waco would
follow their example and a burst of rooftop solar could ensue. So please
take just 3 minutes and ask Chip/Joanna to do the right thing and install
solar. This would be a win for Magnolia, the City of Waco, and the
climate. Here is the link to the message form:
