9/20 Climate Strikes and 9/22 People's Mobilization to Stop the U.S. War Machine — Raise Up The Green Demands!

Young people, adults and environmental organizations are mobilizing in anticipation of the upcoming UN Climate Summit in New York City. A week of climate strikes and walkouts, inspired by the arrival of Greta Thunberg, have been called for September 20th with more events through the 27th.

While joining our allies in this important event, we must represent Green demands for real climate justice, which include:

- Ban on All New Fossil Fuel Infrastructure
- Eco-Socialist Green New Deal to Reach 100% Clean Energy by 2030 and Transform Our Society
- Dismantle the U.S. War Machine That Mis-allocates Resources Toward the Destruction of People and Planet

During the week of action, there are two key dates for Greens:

- Friday, September 20th: Climate strikes and walkouts in NYC and around the state
- Sunday, September 22nd:Join the People's Mobilization in NYC to Stop the U.S. War Machine, 2pm at Herald Square. <[link removed]>
