A few weeks ago, the San Francisco team at 350.org enjoyed a special
treat. We attended a book signing and reception for local photographer [Debra Bloomfield’s newest book, Flow.](https://www.chroniclebooks.com/index/main,book-info/store,books/products_id,7071/title,Still/) In addition to a book signing, the evening turned out to be a 350 action! Debra attended one of Bill McKibben’s talks at the [Herbst Theater in San Francisco](https://www.cityarts.net/n.mckibben.html) a few months ago, and was so moved by his talk that she took home a 350 flyer, and printed out 100 copies to give out.

We were very touched by her work. Another special part of the evening was spending time with [Terry Tempest Williams](https://www.americanswhotellthetruth.org/pgs/portraits/Terry_Tempest_Williams.html),
a good friend of Step It Up, and now, 350.org. Thanks to all the
artists supporting 350.org…and for those of you eager to get your
creative juices flowing, participate in our [craft contest!](https://www.craftster.org/350)
