On Earth Day, join the Sierra Club as we make history by organizing the largest group aerial photo in the country that spells out "B-E-Y-O-N-D C-O-A-L".
Our goal is to demonstrate grassroots support for moving beyond coal and making Austin the #1 clean energy city in the country. We need hundreds of people to make this Texas-sized photo a success, so please spread the word!
