Updated: Attention Boston folk - this Sunday evening on June 15th, from 4:00-5:30 PM, we’ll gather with Platform2 and company to Parade for the Future!
Let’s celebrate what hasn’t happened yet, notably the impending submergence of our city under water due to climate change.
Participants dressed all in blue, the parade will proceed along the flood line of the neighborhood, tracing a worst-case scenario future geography from the year 2108. Amidst this giant blue wave, climate change activists are encouraged to distribute literature. All are encouraged to participate - just wear blue and bring friends!
There will be scuba divers and sharks and seaweed. There will be music and swimming!

Just an FYI — our Platform2 event is Sunday June 15th (not this Sunday which would be June 1). Hope to see folks there!
