That's a wrap!
THANKS for making the event a success! You were one of 1499 Angelenos who registered for Climate Day LA on Tuesday at The Theatre at Ace Hotel (seriously impressive, but couldn't we have just one more sign up?!), and we couldn't have done it without you.
From the pop-ups, VR experiences, and exhibitors upstairs, to the action-oriented conversations downstairs, we're proud of Los Angeles for showing up and showing out!
If you missed any of the opportunities onsite, here is a recap to keep the momentum going:
- Get involved by signing up with the Path to Positive LA initiative. This is the premier network for cutting-edge communications materials that will help you level up your climate leadership and connect you with the diverse community that came together at CDLA.
- We offered three Engagements in Action throughout the day. You can still participate by adding your support via our website: http://climateday.la/takeaction
- Relive the fun! Check out Climate Resolve's Storify for a recap of the day and the photo gallery below by Quinn Tucker of Quasar Media:
We're excited to build on the energy and determination you brought to Climate Day LA -- now more than ever. Onward, The Climate Day LA Team
