Walk for Action on Global Warming

Vermonters Walking Toward a Clean Energy Future is a five-day walk from Ripton to Burlington August 31–September 4. With a community Conversation on the Green at every town and a political address at City Hall Park, with hopes to focus the public's attention on the urgency of global warming and spark political action, led by noted Vermont author Bill McKibben. Consider walking your local leg of the route Ripton-Middlebury-Vergennes-Charlotte-Shelburne-Burlington, attending the local talk on the green in each town, or if you can only attend part of the journey, consider the Shelburne Farms to Burlington leg and the rally at City Hall Park in Burlington from 1-3pm on Labor Day, September 4.
