This is an invitation to change everything.

And we think Arkansas and Tennessee
should be right there in the middle of it.

Why March? A New Vision
Crowdfunding: A short wish list
Be an advocate

In September, world leaders are coming to New York City for a UN summit on the climate crisis. UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon is urging governments to support an ambitious global agreement to dramatically reduce global warming pollution.

With our future on the line and the whole world watching, we'll take a stand to bend the course of history. We'll take to the streets to demand a world within our reach: a world with an economy that works for people and the planet; a world safe from the ravages of climate change; a world with good jobs, clean air and water, and healthy communities.

To change everything, we need everyone on board.

Sunday, September 21
Please join us one way or the other:
come with us to march or participate from home.

This September is going to be a success because of the work we all do together — not because of any one person or organization. Take the initiative to organize your community, your school, your workplace, and your neighbors.

Join the Arkansas bus trip to New York City

Sponsored by the Sierra Club and other groups, we have partnered with Eventure America to organize fun and EASY luxury motorcoach transportation and hotel packages for attendees from Arkansas and Tennessee! Four days, three nights. Maximum 56 people on the bus.

• Depart Little Rock early Friday morning Sept 19.
• Tour Climate Change Science Institute and hear the experts.
• Spend Friday night in a hotel in east Tennessee.
• Travel to the outskirts of New York City on Saturday.
• Spend Saturday night in a hotel outside the City.
• Take bus to the PCM location Sunday morning.
• Participate in People's Climate March Sunday afternoon.
• (Religions for the Earth service at St. John the Divine Cathedral 6:00 PM.)
• Leave New York City Sunday evening, traveling through the night.
• Arrive back in Little Rock Monday evening, Sept 22.

Since we have now decided to charter TWO buses, this itinerary may be changed slightly for either bus. The multi-faith worship service at St. John the Divine Cathedral is optional and the group may decide (together) not to stay for it.

The prices below include round-trip transportation and rooms for two nights. These are actual, reasonable costs, but because we want to encourage a diversity of participants (especially youth), we will be fundraising in an effort to reduce costs for some participants. Please let us know of your interest regardless of what you can pay.

Participate in the People's Climate March from home

1. The most important way to participate is by raising awareness.
   • Please check out the Arkansas Climate Advocate Page.
2. If you can't make the trip with us but would like to help send someone in your place, there are many who would like to go if they can get assistance with the expense.
   • For many ways to help, please check the Arkansas-Tennessee Participation Page.
3. Still in the planning stages, there will be several special worship/prayer services here at home in which you may participate.
