Climate Change...
Climate Crisis
Yard signs are available !
The ecumenical group that recently discussed the book "Climate Church, Climate World" by Jim Antal, created yard signs to remind people of the climate change crisis and urge them to take action.
Three different yard signs are available (made of paper, and not plastic) see designs here.
You can pick up a sign at the Emerson Center (on the porch), or at Tom Warren's house (92 Hill Street, Topsfield). Signs will be available outside, so we can maintain social distancing.
We suggest a donation of at least $ 5.00 to cover the associated costs.
For additional information please contact:
Tom Warren at tawpaw354@gmail.com or
Martin Riekert at martin@topsfieldchurch.org
Please put in the subject line of your email: Climate Change Yard Sign
