To join her in Connecting the Dots May 5th, visit ClimateDots.orgOur precious earth has been sending out distress signals for quite some time and people in communities around the world have been deeply impacted and grossly affected by both uncharacteristic climactic events and subtle changes. Our ecosystems are crying out for help as we continue to increase our carbon pollution in every corner of the world.The success of stopping the Keystone XL pipeline (for now) restores my faith that we can make a difference\u2026so\u2026on May 5th, communities around the world will be connecting the dots on the impacts of climate change to paint a global picture of what is happening around the world, sending a global smoke signal.In my community of Bellingham, we are bringing together everyone concerned about the proposed Gateway Pacific Terminal that SSA Marine would like to build just a few miles up the road. They want to ship coal, mined in the Powder River Basin over 1000 miles away after it has travelled in mile and a half long rail cars through several states just to reach our shores, destined for Asia to burn. Their plan is to build the largest coal port in North America\u2019s history, along with other companies interested in several several other ports along the West coast. This is no small feat to conquer yet, when the economic benefits are examined alongside the negative impacts to our health, local economies and environment, it is clearly a bad idea. This calls for connecting the dots from the Powder River Basin to Asia as the carbon pollution across the globe will affect us all.On May 5th, our town will come together and walk through the middle of downtown, circle up in a beautiful city park (near the tracks), connect the dots, and hear our Mayor proclaim May 5th as Climate Impacts Day! When it comes time for the public comment period on the coal terminal project, we will send our smoke signal to all at 350.org and ask for everyone to weigh in on the concerns of this project as its climate impacts are global in scale.&nbsp;"}
