Obon is a special occasion for Japanese Americans and Shin Buddhists. It is a time to remember those who have come before us and to reflect with deep gratitude on how their lives made our own possible. The Vista Buddhist Temple's Obon Festival will include discussions on Buddhism, homestyle Japanese foods, performances (taiko drumming, judo, hands-on koto, and sumi-e demonstrations), and a marketplace of local produce, plants, and crafts. Parking and admission are free. Obon is also known for Bon Odori folk dancing, a celebration and expression of gratitude for those who are no longer with us. Everyone is invited to join in on the dancing, which starts at 6:30 p.m. on both Saturday and Sunday! Vista Buddhist Temple on Facebook / Instagram

Please join us for an online presentation from Charles Rilli (Sierra Club, SD Chapter), Anthony Dang (Climate Action Campaign), and Professor Gregg Macey (UC Irvine). These three have been engaged on air pollution issues across the state for a few years now. Charles and Anthony with the support of Professor Gregg Macey are working with the San Diego Air Pollution Control District and environmental justice champions to combat air pollution in the county. They are jointly working to begin the electrification of "indirect sources" of warehouse operations through expediting the transition to clean fleets, looking to combat pollution coming from operation equipment, and lowering emissions in the largest warehouse polluters. Through Climate Action Plans, Charles and Anthony are looking to hold local municipalities accountable to reducing their emissions and making sound climate actions. There will be time for questions from the audience. While there is no charge for this online event, please register in advance. https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/lLdwKoisQX2jK-DG2Y3BCA#/registration
