The People’s Climate Action Day
Local activists are organizing a People’s Climate Action Day in Davis Central Park, Sunday, September 21, 2014, at the Farmers Market Pavilion behind the U.S. Bicycling Hall of Fame from 11:30 A.M. to 2:30 P.M. Organizers are hoping for a big turn out and lots of energy!
Organizers welcome residents of Davis and surrounding communities from all walks of life to gather and share their climate concerns. Participants are asked to attend via bus, train, bike, foot, scooter, electric cart, electric car, skateboard, hybrid, or carpool and to bring their own reusable water bottles. Signs and personal demonstrations welcome.
This gathering is in solidarity with organizers touting the largest climate march in history in New York City, dubbed The People’s Climate March, the same day.
