Step It UP 2007 is Upon Us!

ø

I’m very late in reporting on my field trip to D.C.1 and the first annual teach-in “Confronting the Global Triple Crisis – Climate Change, Peak Oil, Global Resource Depletion & Extinction” and nearly missed my opportunity to pump up the National Day of Climate Action. But if you are already convinced or even just curious y’all come

Saturday November 3, 2007.

For the Boston folks a few possibilities:

8:45 AM Cambridge City Hall – “Walk for a Climate Revolution” arriving at St. Paul’s Cathedral (near Park St T) at:

10:30 AM St. Paul’s Cathedral (near Park St T) – “The BIG One” will conclude about 12:00 N with a send off for the:

12:00 N St. Paul’s Cathedral (near Park St T) – “Revolutionary Ride” stopping at Alewife T station @ 1:00 PM then on to Concord. You CAN take a bike on the Red Line 🙂 .

Otherwise follow the “Join an Action” link on the Step It Up 2007 website.

For the “my revolutionary fervor is bigger than yours” crowd, I will simply point out that Bill Mckibben, who organized this and the first one last year, caught some tear gas at the WTO demonstration a while back. Can a former Crimson President have street cred? Darfur, by the way, is about oil, imperialism, AND global warming.2
