A 16 year-old has captured the world's attention.

She started by holding a homemade sign on the steps of the Swedish
parliament every Friday, protesting her government's climate
inaction. She gave a TED Talk - and sailed across an ocean. And
this week, Greta Thunberg will testify before a U.S. congressional
committee and lead millions of people around the world in demanding
action to address the climate crisis.

The leaders of the world are paying attention - and this week
could supercharge a movement that will change the course of history.
We need to seize this opportunity, and stand with the youth leaders
who are making it happen.

Here's what you can do to help:

1) Make Congress Listen:

President Trump's refusal to act to protect Americans from the
biggest environmental threat we have ever seen is actually giving us a
chance to step back, set goals, and create a clear plan to achieve
them.

The first step is getting as many members of Congress on board. Take
action today, and tell your Rep it's time for the US to move to
a 100% clean energy economy.

2) Show Support on Social:

Once you've taken action, ask your friends & family to follow your
lead on Facebook and Twitter - and don't forget to use the #strikewithus
hashtag to show you're part of the Global Climate Strike movement!

3) Join an Event Near You:

Events will be taking place across the country on Friday, September
20th. If you're able to take the day off, find an event near you and
show up to show your support!

This is history in the making - and you get to be a part of it,
whether you can be there in person or show your support from home.

Thank you for all you do,

Heather Shelby
Action Network Manager
