Roots and Shoots New England is excited to announce our support for the One Earth, One Climate Rally on Saturday, April 14, 2007. This event, which will be held at the Parkman Bandstand on Boston Common from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m., will bring together people of all ages to voice support for a new energy path. The rally will feature remarks by US Representative Edward Markey (D-MA), climate change experts and youth leaders, as well as music by The Chad Hollister Band. As part of the rally, children and adults will form a human chain across Boston Common to mark what may become Boston's future waterfront if global warming continues: Wear blue! The Cambridge MA Roots & Shoots group invites you to join them in their Kids Walk to Stop Global Warming. They will begin gathering groups of school-age children and their parents at 12:30 in front of MIT's Kresge Auditorium. The Walk will commence at 1 p.m. and youth will carry their homemade signs with informative images/information about global warming. They will walk to Boston Common for the 2:00 Rally.
The rally is one of hundreds of events that will be held across the country on April 14, as part of the national Step It Up 2007 campaign. For more information, visit www.stepitboston.com or e-mail info@stepitboston.com.
