Climate Strike: #BayAreaShoeStrike Climate Emergency Protest Online & In-person North Bay

GLOBAL CLIMATE ACTION DAY 2020

Date & Time of Action: Sept. 26 @ 10 AM - noon PT

Online participation for all people everywhere on social media and Youtube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tHw3DcSmHRw&feature=youtu.be

In-person: Drop off shoes & signs at Novato City Hall, 901 Sherman Ave, Novato, CA 94945

It's difficult to gather in person during the pandemic. But we don't want to forget
the climate crisis!

A #BayAreaShoeStrike for climate uses shoes and small signs to send a message:
we are still here fighting for the climate emergency. We are still asking for climate justice
and a Green New Deal.

By placing your shoes on the steps of City Hall or sharing a photo of your shoes with #BayAreaShoeStrike, you can help more people remember: this is still happening. Because they are so visually engaging, ShoeStrikes receive media attention. Plus, they can remind us that the current crises can best be solved together: climate justice, social justice, racial justice, and a strong economy go hand-in-hand.

It will be a hybrid action, with both a physical presence at Novato City Hall (901 Sherman Ave, Novato, CA 94945) and an online event for all people everywhere.

Here are various ways you can participate:

--Drop off shoes at Novato City Hall on September 26 between 10 – 12noon. Your shoes will be included in the final action tally, including a comprehensive photo.

--Take a photo of your shoes at a location of your choice anywhere, with or without a small sign, and share it via your own social media. Tag #BayAreaShoeStrike so we can track it.

--Take a photo of your shoes at a location of your choice anywhere, with or without a small sign, and share it with greennovato [at] gmail.com, so that it can be shared during the live broadcast and on a curated page at greennovatocom.

--Join the live broadcast to comment via Youtube live chat here, at https://tinyurl.com/bayareashoestrike, and share photos, ask questions of speakers, and more.

Do all or some combination of all these options.
