Bill McKibbon in Dallas on Oct 21

Sharing this event coming up -- it happens to be the same night as our GFW Sierra General Meeting, but if some choose to hear Bill speak -- I'm sure it will be time well spent (as well).

 

There is an exciting event coming up in just a few weeks and I want to invite you to attend!

 

Join local environmental organizations for an extraordinary evening with Bill McKibben, one of America’s most influential environmental writers and activists, as he brings his powerful message to Dallas. McKibben is the co-founder of the global climate movement 350.org and Third Act.  He is also the author of 20 books, including the newly released Here Comes the Sun and will speak on the urgent intersection of climate change, environmental protection and democracy. In his latest book, McKibben makes the case that solar energy isn’t just a technology — it’s a transformative force capable of reshaping economies, communities, and political power for the better.

 

The event is being held at the First Unitarian Church of Dallas at 4015 Normandy, off Preston near Mockingbird. Don’t miss this chance to hear this exciting speaker!

RSVPs required.  Limited seating.  Cost: $15  Students may attend for free but must register by emailing chapat037@gmail.com.
