Climate Ribbon Tree: Slide Show
We asked people the question, "What do you love and hope to never lose to Climate Chaos" and listened to them. We then helped them write their response on a ribbon and tie it a "tree." We did this at various spots around Manhattan during Climate Week to draw people's attention to our work. photos by ©️Stan Eichner.

We marched with posters that communicate clearly about our work.
