http://www.thefrontpageonline.com/articles1-12371/HugeClimateChangeRallySundayinDowntownLosAngeles

With climate change on their minds, hundreds of activists from across a wide coalition of 90 groups, led by Tar Sands Action Southern California and Sierra Club, will march on Sunday afternoon at 1 o’clock in downtown Los Angeles in the “Forward on Climate” rally.

The Los Angeles rally will coincide with thousands of protesters converging on Washington D.C. in the largest climate change rally in history, led by 350.org and the Sierra Club.

Elected officials and community leaders will call on President Obama to take strong action on the climate crisis and reject damaging projects such as the controversial Keystone XL Pipeline.

Convening at Olvera St./Paseo de la Plaza, what may be the largest rally of protestors in the city’s history will advance to City Hall.
