A Connect-the-Dots BBQ at the Palm and Pawn pub in Wgga Wagga Australia
Wagga experienced the worst flooding in its history in March
this year, and this pub was completely under water. We asked the people who
came to the event to write their flooding story on an orange dot, and hung
them at the height of the water during the flooding.

The Gaia Women of the Great Lakes Basin remind us that 
35 million people in the US and Canada rely on the Great Lakes for drinking water. Climate change is warming the Great Lakes waters and bringing more frequent heavy rainfall, overwhelming waste water infrastructure and sending sewage into the lakes. Fertilizer carried by increased runoff is causing blue green algae in some areas, generating toxins that imperil fish, animals, and humans.

Connecting the Dots at the Kentucky Dery
From Mahwah, NJ, with the Ramapough Indian Nation
On May 5th, 2012, climate activists from 350.org hiked to the site of a proposed Fracked gas pipeline in Mahwah NJ to create a climate dot and hold a teach-in on Fracking and Climate Change Impacts. After the hike we joined a coalition of diverse local communities in a Prayer for the Earth ceremony hosted by the Ramapough-Lunaape Nation. Over 200 gathered along the banks of the Mighty Ramapough River and listened carefully as speakers including Airy Dixon and Sandra Steingraber shared stories and empowered individuals to connect the dots and unite in action towards a new and better path. The proposed gas pipeline through the Ramapough Mountains is one of many pending that would carry Fracked gas from the Marcellus Shale, where families and communities are battling the oil and gas industry for their clean air and safe drinking water. Developing these pipelines through NJ threatens local communities by clear cutting and blasting through ecologically sensitive lands in the State’s largest watershed region, and it impacts the global community by risking and delaying our transition off of fossil fuels to a safe climate future.
