Oakland Climate Strike: Resilient Village
Date and Time: Friday, December 6, 2019 @ 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM
Location: Oakland City Hall, 1 Frank H. Ogawa Plaza, Oakland, CA, 94612
Join Oakland youth for a community Resilient Village to raise awareness on climate resilience and our upcoming climate chaos with hands-on workshops on herbal making, civic engagement, art, water catchment, and more. We will also provide tools for youth and allies to learn about divestment from fossil fuels and investment in the Green New Deal and provide ways to get involved.
This action is youth led and co-hosted by YVA, Mycelium Youth Network, Planting Justice and others.
We hope this will lead into a city wide disaster resilience planning meeting with city officials on Saturday 12/7.
Part of the National Climate Strikes on December 6th:
The September 20th Climate Strike was the largest day of action for climate justice ever. On December 6th, as world leaders gather at the UN’s annual climate conference, young people across America will join a national #ClimateStrike to take the momentum from September to our elected officials’ doorsteps.
In September, many politicians shared nice words of encouragement. But, we didn’t walk out of school and work to earn their praise. We joined the #ClimateStrike because our lives depend on elected leaders treating this crisis like the emergency it is.
On December 6th, we’ll show up at the offices of our political leaders and ask them, are you ready to stand with our generation and fight for a Green New Deal?

ARTICLE in Common Dreams: " 'Existential Threat to Civilization': Planetary Tipping Points Make Climate Bets Too Dangerous, Scientists Warn"
"I don't think people realize how little time we have left," Owen Gaffney, a global sustainability analyst at the Stockholm Resilience Center at Stockholm University and a co-author of the paper, told National Geographic. "We'll reach 1.5°C in one or two decades, and with three decades to decarbonize it's clearly an emergency situation."

Stop Flying And Driving Denial of Global Warming.
Trump is the knowing patsy for the coming economic collapse caused by the current and future environmental catastrophes.
All the operating coastal nuclear power plants
will flood, then explode.

STOP DRIVING !!
GLOBAL WARMING!!
This December 11-15 join the 10th annual 5-day monthly boycott of cars by using public transit, walking, or biking.
Automobiles are the leading cause of CO2 emissions in our nation and the number one source of water and air pollution. Through crashes and pollution, cars are responsible for more than 2 million deaths around the world EVERY YEAR.
The power for change is in OUR hands, and at this crucial hour honoring this Indigenous-led boycott is essential to returning to a safe and sane way of life, based on respect for Mother Earth.

Consumer demand for oil fuels wars and devastation across the planet. Join the Boycott in solidarity with Mother Earth and the people of Venezuela and Iran!
