From one participant: It was great fun and they gave us 5 seedlings. We were like the 500-pound gorilla in the living room that no one wanted to notice. There was a sea of city employees and a large number of police. But no one approached us. We had the following 2X2 signs: SMART GROWTH NOT SPRAWL + PLANT TREES ….DON’T DESTROY THE WOODLOT. FIRST TO KYOTO ? * Kingston * Calgary * Ottawa * Richmond * Sannich * Vancouver. ALL ADOPTED LEED GREEN BUILDING and my personal favourite….CITY COUNCIL NEEDS A CLIMATE CHANGE. About 200 people saw the signs and several people asked polite questions. We certainly did not feel awkward so I am glad we showed up.
