We’ll get through this together.Dear John,

Like you, I'm quarantined on the 50th anniversary of Earth Month. I occupy a
roughly 10-square-block universe around my house. Yet I’ve discovered new
activities that give me the power to act locally – and I mean inside my house
and neighborhood – while keeping global climate change at the center of my
activist life.

Now, I’d like to share with you how you can get involved.
