Martinez, CA

Wednesday, Feb. 26 from 6:30-8:30 p.m. at the Veterans War Memorial, 930 Court St., Martinez, there will be a public forum to discuss increased rail accidents, refinery dangers and climate change.

Speakers will be Antonia Juhasz, an oil industry analyst, author and journalist, and Marilaine Savar, a spokesman from a citizens group of Lac Megantic, Quebec, Canada. Lac Megantic is a small town structured like Martinez with a railway in the downtown that had an oil-filled rail car explode killing 47 townspeople and nearly burning most of the downtown.

This forum is sponsored by Sunflower Alliance partnering with 350 Bay Area.org, Communities for a Better Environment, Sierra Club, Pittsburg Defense Council, Pittsburg Ethics Council, Forest Ethics and Richmond Progressive Alliance.
Please tell your friends as it is open to the public. Hope to see you there.
