350 NOLA, Tulane Divest, and Tulane Green Club co-hosted a vigil for the survivors and victims of Typhoon Haiyan, an enormously devastating storm that hit the Philippines. We lit candles, and discussed 1. ways to help New Orleanians connect the dots between stronger storms and climate change, and 2. how we might send meaningful and effective aid to the Philippines in the wake of this terrible natural disaster.

Obama came to NOLA to talk about increasing exports, including fossil fuel exports. Our message: Obama, climate change is a human rights issue. No KXL! No tar sands! No fossil fuel exports! Save our city, our coast, our people, our way of life!
