This is a BIG file. It will take a while to load. The photos are as high-res as an iPhone can go. If you want one, just drag it to desktop.

Though the March for Science Dallas had a wimpy ending, the sentiment continued through the day at Earth Day Dallas. Signs and t-shirts from the march were everywhere. Now that’s some good outreach!

These guys greeted us after entry and were mega fun. Wish the photos weren’t so fuzzy. The sign is about cow catapulting. They were wearing chainmail! Science has been with us a long time.

This guy.

Science signs and t-shirts were prominent throughout the event grounds all afternoon long.

Proverbs 12:1 “Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, but whoever hates correction is stupid”

Science dog!

This was our Deep Ellum dinosaur. She was still tuckered from dragging that costue around.

More science signs!

Youth rocks science!

Science families had a grand time at Earth Day Texas.

Some lively feminism swirled around the march.

Preservation of the planet and the administration’s assault on environmental science was a big theme.

Science! Science! Science!

Her sign was also in German!

Think!

Climate change was foremost on people’s minds.

Get active, get loud, get after it!

A t-shirt is a walking sign.

A few more signs on the DART train home.
