From 350.org DON’T FRACK OHIO
Beginning this weekend, in the lead-up to the huge antifracking mobilization in June, Don’t Frack Ohio organizers will be traveling around the state holding meetups with community members to strengthen the local movements against fracking and to build the energy for our statewide convergence in June.
See below for the “suggested” strategy session location for your county. (Specific locations listed at the bottom of this email.) Click here to sign up for a strategy session: http://www.dontfrackoh.org/strategy-sessions/
Each stop will be different, but here’s roughly what we have planned:
- Presentations on why this fight matters, and the state of fracking in Ohio.
- Conversations with local activists about how we can take action in our communities before the big action in June.
- Training and discussion on how to take on the industry across the state.
- Planning for how to make the action in June HUGE.
