Sudburys parachute is a giant Earth with characters and flags surrounding it. The design was inspired by a giant chalk drawing on the driveway Sophia Mathur made for her mother, Cathy Orlando, when she came back from lobbying on Parliament Hill in 2015. The message on the chalk drawing was If we all try, we can make a difference. The flags represent the Bridge of Nations, a unique landmark in Sudbury. Students from RL Beattie will sign the parachute prior to Sudburys Earth Day festival on June 2. At the Earth Day Festival, community members will be asked to sign the parachute. On October 15, 2018, on Parliament Hill, Parachutes for the Planet from across Canada will be on display. Then all Canadian Parachutes will be shipped to The Mother Earth Project and join at least 89 other parachutes and be displayed in Washington DC and then go on a World Tour. I am so grateful for this project. It is beautiful and it is going to change the world. I have no doubts. says Cathy Orlando, Citizens Climate Lobby International Outreach Manager and coordinator of Sudburys Parachute for the Planet. The youth and their parents felt very special after the project was completed.
