Instead of dismantling their holiday decorations next week, Brookline activists and friends are gearing up for the second annual Climate Week January 21-29. And even the organizers are surprised at the level of enthusiasm the week is already generating. “This year, people are calling us,’’ said Mary Dewart, Climate Week co-chair. Climate Week will include fresh, local produce at a much-talked-about Winter Marketplace, activities for children, an arts stroll, workshops on winterizing, a reading by Frances Moore Lappe of Diet for a Small Planet fame, and opportunities to recycle.
