Scroll down and you'll see a picture of our walk team- we stopped in on our way to Capitol Hill
We really appreciate what these folks are doing to make something that feels huge and abstract into something tangible, that lets you see and interact with the impacts of climate change on human life
That's a wrap!
- 50 hours of science + calling Congress
- 300 letters given to Congress after a 250-mile walk
We provided the templates and our viewers and supporters injected their voices.
And like last year, we feel so uplifted by our community.
Thank you for spending your time with us
Hour 42/50! With a talk about wildfires. I popped in during hour 40 for penguins. And the community in the chat is phenomenal.
Meanwhile, our walk team is in their final 3 miles and has ~300 letters! And more members of Congress want to chat then can fit in the Capitol schedule.
NYTimes has coverage today of the end of funding for the AI and Weather institute led by @profamymcgovern.bsky.social
