Massachusetts Climate Summer!
Check out Massachusetts Climate Summer! These cyclists have committed their summers to building part of the grassroots movement that will create the changes that we need! They're terrific, and they may be biking through your town soon!
Individuals, community organizations, congregations, colleges, and municipal leaders are getting involved across the Commonwealth! Whether you're on one of the routes or not, if your congregation would like to get involved, please let me know.
The Massachusetts Council of Churches is a sponsor of Mass Climate Summer, and I'm working with them to coordinate the efforts of faith communities (interfaith) across Massachusetts so that we can grow the movement by working together.

Thanks. I've already been in touch with the organizers of Mass Climate Summer and am expecting a call from one of their North Shore riders this afternoon. We look forward to working with them.
