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. 

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

P.S. I made this quick video encouraging folks to come out to the Climate Strike. Take a look here and share it with your friends and family!

Now, we're excited to join Climate Strike actions across the U.S. Find one near you and RSVP today.
