Carbondale Center Place

This Tuesday, February 9th, another development in Carbondale is likely to be rubber stamped. This is despite the fact that many in the community are very concerned by the very new City Market development and others - is the City Market really the flagship store that we expected? We’ve all heard the community complaints about the aisles upon aisles of bottled and canned sugary drinks and processed foods, as well as the nearly unfathomable amount of largely single-use packaging that flows out of the store.

What can we do to work to create change?

We are building a new website and will add more here when we have time. 

Marches and rallies are a great tool to build energy and bring people together around a movement. In some cases in big cities or with a big enough march they can bring media attention, or influence politicians, or have other impacts but most marches really bring people together and create energy around that movement. Change is made by those people brought together continuing to work after the march or rally. If we want change we need to work together to create change.
