Moving Planet

This coming Saturday, September 24th, there will be events all over the world, in 170 countries, to demand that the transition from fossil fuels, the move toward a greener planet take place at a faster pace and with more focus.  Sustainability is – to tell you the honest truth – the only way we’re going to survive on this extraordinarily beautiful, bountiful earth of ours.  The message from the Moving Planet folks is for you to get on board, get out, and voice your demand for change.  Go to the website to find a rally near you.  Or make one happen in your community.  (We’re going to the UN.)

Here’s the video.  Get up and out on Saturday, wherever you are, and make your voice heard.
