Montpelier, VT: Hundreds of high school and college students from around the state of Vermont participated in a climate march this past Thursday, April 28th. The march, organized by Vermont Youth Lobby, began at Vermont College of Fine Arts, and ended in a rally, speeches, and live music at the Statehouse in Montpelier. Despite it being a slightly chilly day in April, the mood and energy was high, and it was hard not to find a smile on the faces of student’s carrying self-made signs. [ 666 more words. ]
