As part of the national Step it Up campaign to compel Congress to enact legislation that would reduce carbon emissions by 80 percent by 2050, more than 75 people from Wakefield and surrounding communities gathered April 14 at the bandstand on the Lower Common to show their support for the effort.
One of over 1,400 gatherings across the nation on this raw and blustery day in Wakefield, the photo was sent to the Step it Up 2007 Web site to become part of a streaming slide show of all the events that will be sent to members of Congress. (See www.stepitup2007.org for more information.) This Sunday is Earth Day, another opportunity to advocate for this issue
The event was organized by the Wakefield Climate Action Project.
