International Day of Climate Change

PLEASE COME take a Chalk around the Common
Who: YOU and other Friends of Halifax Common

What: EVENT promoting 350.org, International Day of Climate Action

When: Friday October 23, 12 noon- 2 p.m.

Less than 1/3 of the Halifax Common's original 235 acres is public
open space.

The disappearance of our Halifax Common is a metaphor for the
degradation of our global Common- MOST URGENTLY our atmosphere &
climate.

We need you to help us draw a chalk line around the sidewalk
perimeter of the entire original Halifax Common to illustrate its
original size.

You can be imaginative and draw sheep & cows or cabbage & corn or
words to encourage governments to act on climate change!

Meeting points for getting chalk and directions are:
1. Robie & Cunard
2. Robie & Jubilee
3. Robie & University
4. South Park & South
5. South Park & Spring Garden
6. Bell Road by Bengal Lancers
7. North Park & Cogswell
