March For Science: Recap and Photos

Seriously, though, the March For Science saw a massive turnout of individuals from every walk of life, culture, and political party. Everyone stood united against the budget cuts Trump was planning to implement during his presidency. Here are the statistics:

  • 1 million+ marchers
  • 600+ marches
  • 270+ partners
  • ~10,000 organizers
  • 740,000+ views of the March For Science via livestream
  • 5 penguins

Me neither.
