Dear friend,

This month will be the dawn of a new era in the climate movement. With glaciers melting at unprecedented rates and fires burning across the Amazon, young people are going all out to fight for our future and our elders are rising in solidarity with us.
On Wednesday, September 18, my Juliana v. United States co-plaintiffs and I will come together with Swedish climate activist, Greta Thunberg, at a press conference in Washington D.C. We will call on world leaders to recognize the fierce urgency of climate change, and to put in place science-based climate recovery plans around the world. Tune in to the Facebook livestream of this historic union of major youth leaders.

On Friday, September 20, young people, workers, activists, politicians and many more will strike to demand immediate climate action in what will likely be the largest climate mobilization ever. We will strike to demand transformative action to address the climate crisis. Building on the recent surge of the youth climate movement, adults will join us to send a clear, intergenerational message to governments that they must act decisively in the face of climate chaos.

Join my co-plaintiffs and me at strikes across the country, from New York City to Alaska, to show solidarity with the broader youth climate movement and demand our day in court.

Leading up to these groundbreaking events, some of my fellow Juliana plaintiffs will be on the Hill meeting with Members of Congress as part of our #Congress4Juliana campaign. When our case wins in court, we will need climate leaders in Congress and the White House who support our lawsuit and our constitutional rights to make sure that the judicial mandate is upheld and the science heeded. Ask your legislators to lend their voices to our movement now.

Grateful for all you do to support the brave young people in this movement.

Thank you for rising with us,
