Vigil in Boston

We will gather outside Senator Kerry’s office, who has introduced climate legislation in the U.S. Senate and will be a principal negotiator at the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, to express our support for a science-based international climate treaty and climate legislation in the U.S. that gets us back to atmospheric CO2 concentrations of less than 350ppm.

Make and bring a lantern: cut the top 1/3 of a 2 liter soft-drink bottle, put a votive or short taper in it, poke holes through the sides at the top and string a metal string through the holes to make a handle.
