Join BLT, Climate Creatives, and a host of other community partners at the Hyannis HyArts Artist Shanties at Harbor Overlook for an art installation where the public can participate in creating a "Rising Waters/Fish Flags" temporary art project across the street from Hyannis' waterfront park showing rising sea levels. While this unique event has been featured in Panama, Hong Kong, and over 40 other locations, this marks the first time it is being installed on Cape Cod. Please join the Cape community in this fun and educational event as part of BLT's Climate Conversations programming.

This art installation was originally scheduled for Saturday, September 21 at Aselton Park, Hyannis and was postponed due to weather. Join us across the street at the Artist Shanties at the Harbor Overlook in Hyannis on Sunday, September 29 from 11 am to 2 pm.

“A town without nature: not one living tree. So what happened to them? Cue the music, let’s see.” Join Cotuit Library for a movie watch party and climate craft as part of BLT's Climate Conversations Month. The Lorax film expands on Dr. Seuss’ picturebook The Lorax (1971) by adding three additional subplots to the original story: the rise and fall of Thneedville, a teen romance that leads to regeneration of a devastated landscape, and the return of the Lorax that signals a new, sustainable future. This program is part of BLT's Climate Awareness Month series.

Sponsored by the Massachusetts Office of Coastal Zone Management and coordinated by the Urban Harbors Institute, thousands of COASTSWEEP volunteers remove debris that would otherwise pollute our oceans, beaches, lakes, and rivers. Participants collect bag after bag of trash and debris, and record their findings onto data cards. The data is sent to the Ocean Conservancy and entered into a massive marine debris database. This information is then analyzed and used to identify the sources of marine debris, which helps to prevent the problem in the future. If you’re interested in volunteering, contact Donna Bragg at Sandy Neck Gatehouse at 508-362-8300 or by email. This program is part of BLT's Climate Awareness Month series.

Join BLT and its community partner, Osterville Village Library for this climate inspired storytime. Celebrate young climate change activists in this charming story by Andrew Joyner about an empowered girl who shows up, listens up, and ultimately, speaks up to inspire her community to take action against climate change.

This program is part of BLT's Climate Awareness Month series.
