On Saturday April 14th, the Upper Valley will join the National Day of Climate Change Action to tell Congress:
STEP IT UP! CUT CARBON 80% BY 2050!
For events all over the Upper Valley, go to www.uvstepitup.org.
Activities in Hanover begin at 11am at the Richmond School. We'll hear from prospective U.S. Senate candidate Jay Buckey ( J-A-Y B-U-C-K-E-Y), a professor of medicine at Dartmouth and a former astronaut, who will speak on creating a New Energy Economy - what we can do now to break our petroleum habit and fight global warming. Len Cadwallader, Executive Director of Vital Communities based in White River Junction, will speak on the topic "It's All About Land Use."
Activities for children, sharing personal 'tips' to reduce our
contribution to global warming, postcards to Senators Gregg and
Sununu, cookies, globe balloons galore!
At 12:30 we will walk, bike, or carpool in energy-efficient cars to the fair on the Hanover Green to meet other groups.
