Candlelight Vigil for Climate Change -- A Message of Hope for Action in Copenhagen
On December 11th & 12th, people from around the world will gather in their communities and light candles of hope to send a message to our leaders in Copenhagen that we need bold and swift action on climate change. We cannot wait any longer -- we need global action now!
Come join us for a candlelight vigil at King Plaza (in front of City Hall) and the delivery of this important message to our U.S. Representative Anna Eshoo. (There are 2 versions of the letter, in the files below.)
It may rain, so bring an umbrella.
Event details: We will gather at King Plaza and then walk to Anna Eshoo's office to deliver a thank you, photos from recent 350 events and letters urging bold movement on climate policy. We will then return to King Plaza where we will have a few speakers and spell out 350 with our candles for a photo. Our photos will be delivered to 350.org and included in the photos presented at Copenhagen. Please bring a candle if you can, if not we will have extras.
Please RSVP below so we can send any additional event details out to you!

Following the vigil there will be a series of films shown at World
Centric featuring Climate Change with a discussion afterwards. Time:
7:00 PM 2121 Staunton Ct. Palo Alto, CA 94306, just behind JJ&F. To
RSVP for this film event see: http://www.350.org/node/13432
In the spirit of the event please walk, ride your bike, take public transit or carpool to the event.
Thanks,
