FALMOUTH – There were signs on Saturday that people in this town care about science. A lot of signs. We found more than 60.
About 500 or so people gathered on the Village Green to participate in the March For Science, one of hundreds being held across the country.
The crowd in Falmouth formed a circle near the flagpole and heard speakers talk passionately about the role of science in our collective future.
But it was the community itself, this gathering of folks on the old gathering ground of the Village Green that seemed to be the truly powerful message. These people, and their signs. (VIDEO BELOW)
We didn’t see every sign. But we think we saw most of them. These are the ones we found:

Climate change coming to Mar a Lago soon!
