350 Climate Action Day: On the Blue Line March in Olympia, WA

Saturday afternoon, I headed over to the Blue Line March in downtown Olympia.  Coordinated through 350.org’s International Climate Action Day, the intent of the march was to trace the potential future waterline downtown.

All in all, it was a good event with a good turn out.  There were two 350.org walks organized in Olympia, and one attendee that I spoke with said there were about the same amount of people at the other walk as well.  (Hopefully not just the same people at both events!)

We were so fortunate to have nice weather for the first time in days.  A beautiful day to be marching!  I was glad to be able to participate in one of the 5,000+ Climate Actions around the world.

And Now, Some Pictures

We drew on the sidewalk and hung signs to show where we had been, and where the water would be.

And, at the end of the march, we were met by the band. (They were with us throughout the march as well.)  There was music and dancing, a nice time was had by all.

What did you do for International Climate Action Day?
