Marchers Steve, Ed, Tony, and Shira enjoy the unexpected hospitality of Trish and Leonardo Booth at the Booth’s home in Truchas, New Mexico.
Ed Fallon shares the incredible story of the 2014 Great March for Climate Action as chronicled in his memoir, Marcher, Walker, Pilgrim. Ed also discusses the growing urgency of the climate crisis and strategies for local climate resilience, including the work of Birds & Bees Urban Farm — a non-profit that he and his partner, Kathy Byrnes, have established to teach city residents how to turn their yards into dinner. Books will be available for purchase and signed by the author. All proceeds support the educational work of Climate March.
Contact ed@climatemarch.org or call (515) 238-6404 if you’d like to host a presentation, or learn of presentations in your area.
