Earth Day Science March in Downtown Walnut Creek April 22nd

Earth Day Science March:

Civic Park
1375 Civic Dr, Walnut Creek
Saturday, April 22nd, 2017
10:00am – 1:00pm | Free

Together on Earth Day we will rally to educate and raise awareness about our united responsibility to protect the global environment for current and future generations. As a nonpartisan group, we march to support science, because we value science and facts do matter. We will stand together against policies that silence, mischaracterize or restrict science. We oppose threats to eliminate public environmental agencies and censor scientists and instead advocate for scientific evidence-based policy decisions.

We invite all supporters of science, environmental protections and environmental justice to join us. Let’s work together! Let’s march together! Again.

This is a peaceful nonpartisan march.

Education! Science presentations! Interactive events! Fun family activities!
