The
March for Science was fairly small this year, maybe about 20 people, here in Wichita, KS. It was
real cold and windy. The March was this Saturday at the Historic Courthouse
stairs. The local march was sponsored by the Air Capital Sceptics.
Science
Marches were conducted all across the country Saturday, April 14.
From CNN:
Crowds
turned out in cities around the world Saturday for the second annual March for
Science.
Saturday's crowds were
notably smaller than those that showed up for the first march in April 2017,
but attendees expressed as much optimism and hope as they did last year.
According to the non-partisan March for Science
organization, the main event was set to take place in Washington,
while more than 230 satellite events were scheduled around the world in
different forms, be they marches, rallies or science exhibitions.
"There definitely
aren't as many people present this year, but the people and speakers here are
equally as passionate to help advocate for science," said Mackenzie
Mittleman, 24, who attended the march in Washington
for a second year.
