Meeting Bill McKibben

In February my family and I traveled to Washington D.C., where we visited the local Sufi circle, the Baraka Center, and took part in a major rally for environmental awareness and action. The rally, called Forward on Climate, was the largest climate march in U.S. history. Nearly 50,000 people assembled at the National Mall and marched to the White House, calling for meaningful political action on climate change. A movement is afoot, and Earth’s future hangs in the balance. For more on how to get involved, see Bill McKibben’s website 350.org.
