Heading for Extinction and What to Do About It

  • Beacon Hill Friends House 6 Chestnut Street Boston, MA, 02108 United States (map)

Extinction Rebellion MA is hosting a talk on Friday, April 19 about climate change and possible steps forward.

The event information below is from the Extinction Rebellion Facebook event page. Visit the page for more info.

The planet is in ecological crisis: we are in the midst of the sixth mass extinction event this planet has experienced. Scientists believe we may have entered a period of abrupt climate breakdown. This is an emergency.

In this public talk, speakers from the Extinction Rebellion Boston will share the latest climate science on where our planet is heading, discuss some of the current psychology around climate change, and offer solutions through the study of social movements.

Everyone is welcome and entry is free. Contact john.burkhardt@gmail.com if you have questions.

The Extinction Rebellion is an international mobilization for non-violent disobedience to demand urgent action on the ecological crisis. Follow us on Facebook or sign up at xrmass.org/join for more meeting and event announcements!
