Hi Shaun,
Great to see this happening in Halifax. I’m in NS too, on the North Shore, and also connected to One Earth Sanga. I wanted to make sure you know about the Green Ribbon for Climate action campaign, greenribbonforclimate.org. It’s made in NS and travelling the world. It has been incorporated in the two weeks of Buddhist climate activities, http://gbccc.org/15-days-of-buddhist-climate-action/, suggested by the Thich Nhat Hanh community and endorsed by Global Buddhist Climate Change Collective.
I hope you can check out the website, and if you like the idea you can get green ribbon (no charge) at the Ecology Action Centre on Brunswick St for your event, or for sharing in your community.
We also have some neat graphics you can tweet on the website. Just drag and drop and you can add them to a tweet. We are tweeting from @RealSecurityIs and @4climate.
All the best,
Barb Harris
