In September, more than 650,000 people in the United States and 7 million people worldwide walked out of school and work to demand our elected officials to rise up and address the climate emergency urgently. During last week’s international day of action on Nov 29, more than 2 million people participated in international strikes.
Tomorrow, December 6 is our next moment to gather, strike, and shine together.
Once again, the strikes are led by a youth coalition coordinated by Future Coalition, includes Zero Hour, Earth Guardians, Earth Uprising, Fridays For Future USA, Sunrise Movement, US Youth Climate Strike, Extinction Rebellion Youth, and International Indigenous Youth Council and more.
And just like September, there are a diversity of tactics and messages being used. Big actions in San Francisco and Washington DC will lay the blame at the the big banks and investors profiting from the climate crisis.
Other gatherings in Cities and towns from Columbia, South Carolina, to Bellingham, Washington, will host rallies, vigils, walkouts, and teach-ins of all sizes.
As a global society, we remain at a crossroads with a critical decision to make. Will we choose money and greed, or will we choose us, the future of humanity?
Thanks,
