Convening of UUs Organizing Against the West Roxbury Lateral Pipeline

Evan Seitz,  UU Mass Action Climate Action Organizer

Join us on Saturday, February 13th to help plan the UU resistance to the construction of the West Roxbury Lateral Pipeline!  All people are welcome, whether you are an experienced organizer, are concerned about climate change, or simply don't want a dangerous pipeline in your neighborhood. 
We will be discussing ways in which UU congregations can support the local resistance to this unwanted pipeline. The pipeline is opposed by most Boston elected officials and nearly all local residents. To gain access to the roadway where the line is being laid, Spectra first sued the city of Boston, then eventually was granted eminent domain authority.
This will be the first meeting to organize a coordinated regional scale UU response to this pipeline - and eventually other pipelines. When the Texas based Spectra Corporation returns in April, we will be ready. 
Logistics: There is no cost. Lunch will be provided; if you have specific dietary needs please let us know.
Note: there is no accessible bathroom within the congregation. The sanctuary is accessible and the Parish Hall is accessed via three steps.  
If you need childcare during the convening please let us know.
