Dear MoveOn member,
Isra from US Youth Climate Strike here. We helped organize national
climate strikes earlier this year and have been pushing candidates to
demand a climate debate. On Friday, September 20, I'll be joining hundreds
of thousands across the U.S.—along with millions across the globe—for the
Climate Strike. Here's why I'm striking: for my future, for my sister's
future, and for all of those who are already feeling the impacts of the
climate crisis.
We all deserve the right to a future in a sustainable world. But today,
that future is under threat because of climate change caused by carbon
pollution. And right now, communities are being devastated by the current
impacts of the climate crisis, with communities of color and low-income
communities bearing the biggest burden.
It's time to take our destiny out of the hands of fossil fuel billionaires
and the politicians who enable them. It's time to take to the streets to
demand the future that we deserve.
[ US ]Hundreds of Climate Strike actions are taking place across the country
on Friday, September 20. Will you join us in the fight to address the
climate crisis? RSVP here for an event near you.
Thanks for all you do.
–Isra Hirsi, US Youth Climate Strike
