Climate Jam

- Beautiful Day at the local park.
- Live Band.
- Lots of neighbors (many on bikes) coming together to raise awareness of environmental issues.
November 3 was National Step It Up Day. A group of my neighbors -- Greenprint Atlanta -- sponsored this event at John Howell Park. Other grassroot organizations throughout the US sponsored their own events on the same day, one year ahead of the US presidential elections.
I was happy to find the Atlanta Bicycle Campaign's (ABC) new director Rebecca Serna manning a booth. She told me ABC was her dream job. Things have been steadily improving for cyclists in Atlanta. With Rebecca now working her dream job, I think the rate of improvement just got turned up a notch or two.
