“On the October 24th, 350’s International Day of Climate Action, Chicagoans will be protesting outside of one of our city’s biggest polluters—the Fisk Coal Plant in Pilsen. The Fisk Generating Plant and the Crawford Generating Plant in Little Village are only two of the 5 coal-plants owned by Midwest Generation across Illinois. They are the oldest and dirtiest plants in the country… Join us in protecting the health of our communities and our planet in a mass rally on October 24th!”
This is important. Possibly the most important thing that will happen in this city this year. We have the power to change so much for the better. This is our revolution. And it’s immediate. Global Warming is already happening, many of the effects are irreversible. We have a 6 year window to get our shit together and protect what beauty we have left.
