Hi John,

Last week, we reached out for help in telling some of the most powerful
people in the world to spend coronavirus recovery money on people, not
polluters. 

Thousands of us took action. 350 supporters and volunteers across the
globe tweeted, emailed, made face masks and even took to the streets for
COVID-19 safe actions. From Brazil to Belgium we rose up together and made
it impossible for politicians to look away. In Frankfurt, climate
activists blockaded the European Central Bank in protest at their funding
of polluters. In the heart of London, youth strikers projected demands for
change onto the Treasury and the Bank of England.

We showed world leaders that we’re not stopping until we get the just
recovery we asked for. We will keep taking action online and offline over
the coming months to ensure that recovery money spent by governments and
central banks goes towards building back better - rather than returning to
a business-as-usual that wasn’t working.

So take a few moments out of your day to appreciate the power of this
movement and strengthen your commitment to the fight for a #JustRecovery.
Watch and share the inspiring wrap-up video from last week’s actions that
happened around the world.

Last week two summits took place, similar in that they were both
gatherings of immensely powerful people making decisions regarding
trillions of euros which would affect all of us and our post-coronavirus
future. One was a gathering of European leaders and the other a meeting of
finance ministers and central bankers from the world’s twenty richest
countries.

What was the outcome of these meetings, you may ask? Did we get the Just
Recovery we asked for? The short answer is: not yet. But we knew going in
that a real just recovery wouldn’t be about any one meeting. It’s a
struggle that will continue until we’ve won a better, brighter future for
everyone. 

Last week, together, we achieved something very special: we changed the
conversation, and we showed world leaders the power of this growing
movement for a just recovery. 

We will keep fighting, keep pushing, keep shouting until we get what this
world needs and deserves. A recovery that prioritises workers over
polluters, that puts the health of people over the profits of corporations
and that builds solidarity and community across borders. Thank you for
being part of this fight! 

Onwards,

Matilda and Julia for the 350 Europe team

PS: We need to make sure that our leaders don’t take us back to
business-as-usual after this pandemic, but time is running out to convince
them to build back better. We’re pulling out all the stops to push for a
Just Recovery that benefits people and the planet, but we need help.
