ELDERS CLIMATE ACTION BOOK RECOMMENDATION:

Out of this World and Into the Next. By Adriana Marais.
By discussing how extremely inhospitable are the climates on our neighboring planets and moons, this book provides a wonderful picture of why Earth is so important to preserve. Highly recommended!

Find a local YES ON PROP 50 canvassing event in your neighborhood and talk to your neighbors one-on-one! (It's by far the best way to drum up enthusiasm for the Nov. 4 special election's important Prop 50, PLUS it's fun to get to know your community cohorts!)

As you’re gearing up for next week’s No Kings protests on October 18 (which are expected by many to be the “biggest protests ever waged in the U.S.”), don’t forget about this kick-off No Kings event in West Hollywood this Sat., Oct. 11! (We’ll meet up at San Vicente & Santa Monica Blvd. at 7 p.m.)

PLEASE support Prop 50, the Election Rigging Response Act that, if passed, is going to save our democracy! Make sure you and everyone you know is registered to vote and knows about this bill, and then sign up to canvass in your area:

Thanks to all our ECA members who showed up to yesterday’s California Hold the Line demonstration in Santa Monica; it was one of many held across SoCal yesterday to protest Trump’s increasingly aggressive attacks on our democracy and to support Prop 50. #eldersclimateaction #Indivisible #Prop50
