Hey, remember that “Toxic Tour” we sponsored way back in June? Our friends at Climate Reality Project have written up report on the two-day event.

A group shot of the "Toxic Tour." Sorry we don't know the photographer.

Geraldine Watkins of the Concerned Citizens of St. John the Baptist Parish and GNOICC described Friday’s People’s Assembly as follows: The mood was electrifying – everyone wanted to come up with solutions to solving the environmental justice crisis in Louisiana. Rev. Manning started the day with a spiritually uplifting prayer and motivational talk. Ideas were popping left and right.  Everyone was enthusiastic – he ignited the fire and it touched everyone – we were embers and we got brighter and brighter as the day progressed.”

The whole report is really great and very thorough. And there are photos! We recommend you head over to the Climate Reality blog and read the whole thing. Here’s the link:
