Help paint banners, make flags, decorations, and props for Leap Day Action in Berkeley

What is Leap Day Climate Emergency Action 2020 in Berkeley?

Date: February 29, 2020 (Leap day)
Time: 2 pm - 5 pm
Location: Gather at Berkeley BART and then wandering through downtown Berkeley starting around 2:30

What: An extravagant spectacle and roving street party featuring music, performance, art installations and visits to banks and mega-corporations to encourage them to abandon their climate destroying ways and use their resources for life not death, freedom and joy not oppression and misery.

Uh, What?!? : This event isn’t a traditional protest nor is it another frivolous distraction while the world goes to hell around us. The technological / economic / political / cultural shifts necessary to save us require a re-organization of priorities to focus on love, beauty, fun and our connections with other people and away from competition, efficiency, power, money and conformity.

So it is appropriate that we use our extra day for a fun party to Declare Climate Emergency and demand that carbon be kept in the ground. People and the earth have to come before profit.
