Our UN Climate Blogathon starts tomorrow -- and we have a great panel of guests, as well as some Daily Kos writers planning to post. This summit is a big deal. The US has been blocking international progress toward curbing carbon emissions in the past, and is making noises like their tune is changing a bit...
Participation in the march, in letter writing, in making as much noise as possible is really crucial today. Please visit our diaries, but if you do nothing else, please make some noise.
Tomorrow's schedule, all times Pacific:Also:9:00 am Sen. Boxer and Sen. Whitehouse
10:00 am Rep. Barbara Lee
11:00 am Rep. Raúl M. Grijalva
1:00 pm Ken Ward and Jay O'Hara lobster boat activists
3:00 pm Bristol County DA Sam Sutter
NYC Kossacks Meet-up Location for The People’s Climate March
The NYC Kossacks will be meeting at 69th Street and Central Park West. We will have a banner (and some will be wearing orange) so that you can identify us. Sidnora and joanbrooker will be there at 9:30 a.m. and we encourage anyone who wants to march with us to be there by 10:30 a.m. There are estimates of 100,000 plus marchers and if people arrive too late, it may be difficult to get through the crowds to our location. After the march, there will be an NYC meet-up at our usual haunt, Spitzer’s Corner @5 p.m. Here is a link to the diary from KathNY, who will also be updating with relevant information regarding the march.
Please check out KathNY's diary for location information.
