EARTH DAY ACTION: Fun Event for April 22, Morning



With Earth Day this Wednesday, it is our responsibility to be certain the day is not forgotten.  When the pandemic resolves, the climate crisis will remain and represent a even greater threat to mankind.  We continue to persuade the City Council and the Metropolitan Planning Organization, but this will be a more visible event, in place of a live rally.  Please join us:

Digital CLIMATE CRISIS Rally--Post Your Picture:

  • Take a selfie of yourself or family where you shelter in place, in home or safely outdoors.
  • Include a sign or banner with your CLIMATE message. 
  • Include a decarbonization prop if you wish-- EV, solar panels, vegan diet
  • f you don't have poster board available, use printer paper, or tape these together for larger canvas.  
  • Include your name (optional but powerful).
  • PLEASE stay on topic:  our mission is combating the existential threat of the anthropogenic climate crisis.  
  • TO POST:   a)  go to our Facebook group, Waco Friends of Peace-Climate, and post selfie there April 22 morning and b) reply to this email with your image.   If you are not on Facebook, replying to this email is fine.  .
  • In addition to Facebook, if everyone responds we can use a huge collection of images for working with City Council.  I believe images of citizens concerned about the climate will be even more powerful than words alone.  Plus our website, of course.  
  • This action should be FUN and POWERFUL.
  • Please join us:  100% participation is critical.
  • Thank you!
