Dear friends, 
Are you on a family-friendly distribution list? If so, please consider sending 
the below message or your own such message to family-friendly groups. I'd love 
to get the word out to families. I've sent it to 2 downtown San Jose family 
yahoo groups. Feel free to take out/change the part re taking Caltrain (although 
it would be lovely to see families on Bart and Caltrain going to the event next 
Sunday!)
Thank you! Deborah

Dear neighbors and fellow parents,
I'd like to share information with you about the Forward on Climate Rally on 
2/17 in San Francisco. I am encouraging families to attend the rally because the 
extreme changes in climate are going to make it most difficult for our children. 
The sooner our kids start to feel empowered that they can effect change about 
this urgent issue, the better their future will be. 

This rally is a chance to be part of history. The San Francisco rally will be 
the 2nd largest rally on climate change in the history of our country (the 
main rally in DC on the same day will be the largest.) We in the Bay area have 
the chance to send a history-changing message to Obama and to the world: that we 
are taking a stand for our children's future and want action on this issue. 
There will be some brief speakers (short enough for kids' bandwidths!) and one 
of the speakers will be a high school student, exemplifying how kids can effect 
change, even before they become adults. I am guessing the major tv networks will 
be there. 

I'm hoping you will join our family at the rally and tell all your 
friends/family as well. The larger the turnout, the better for our kids' 
futures. In fact, wouldn't it be fun to take the Caltrain together from Diridon 
station for a day of family adventure? 

There's lots of information on the 350BayArea website about the issues: how 
climate change will directly affect the Bay area and what solutions are already 
available to prevent a disastrous change in climate. 

We are working on organizing kid-friendly activities for the rally and if anyone 
would like to help, please email divamusic at comcast.net (Deborah).
