Telling It On the Mountain! |
|
We did it! On Oct. 24, 2009, we participated in the largest day of environmental action in the planet's history, part of an international movement of over 5,200 events in 181 countries!
EarthTeam was joined by a diverse group of inspired students and teachers from seven high schools to unite with other local environmentalists, activists, and student “beads” to form a human necklace at the summit of Mt Diablo.
Some excerpts from student evaluations:
“Personally I plan on making more of an effort to fight in this battle to preserve our planet. Politically, it gave people a chance to express themselves as one to show our leaders that there are people who care.”
“I feel happy and accomplished I could be a part of a global activity.”
“It sends an important message, and everything counts… It felt good to make a difference.”
“It’s great to make a statement and be heard.”
“It was a very fun and powerful demonstration. We were sending out a great message to the world, while networking at the same time.”
Check out aerial photographs and students articles on the Climate Action Campaign page (additional photos coming soon!), as well as 350.org for more updates on Copenhagen.
Thanks to all who participated! Please join the Climate Action Campaign at our November snack-potluck on Sunday, Nov. 22nd. Please RSVP to

Green Screen Website Re-design -- Vote for Your Favorite Video! |
|
EarthTeam's Green Screen website has a new look and new special features. You can still view all of the Green Screen episodes (we're now up to episode #25!), which were created by the teen crew of the Green Screen. However, now you can also vote on your favorite episode. New features include a page with Green Screen's posters and comics, and a page with brief bios from the Green Screen student crew. The site will soon have an additional page with links to all the 1-10 minute webisodes (short video clips filmed by the students). For now, you can view these webisodes by visiting the Green Screen YouTube channel . Please subscribe to this channel and help spread the word!
