Earth Day Science March 2017 organized by Long Island Activists
Tens of thousands of people marched world wide to protest recent cuts to science and political resistance to acceptance of scientific facts.
A local event was organized in Rockville Centre at the Tanglewood Preserve’s Center for Science Teaching and Learning.
In addition to a march featuring hand made signs through the nature preserve, there were science exhibits, speakers and live music provided by The Pattersons, Acoustic Dave & Frank Imburgio.
Long Island Activists member Diann Forquignon was a co-organizer of the event. Members Frank Imburgio, Steven Cecchini, Kathy Patterson, Dave Kotlier and Michael Clark volunteered.
