National Climate Strike: Die-ins, March, Vigil in Santa Rosa

When: Friday, December 6th @ noon - 7 PM

Where: Old Courthouse Square, 3rd & Santa Rosa Ave and 4th & Mendocino Ave, Santa Rosa, CA 95404

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.

Join the Global Youth Climate Strike in Sonoma County by walking out of schools, workplaces, and homes for a day of climate justice action.

First, at 12 noon, we will stage Die-Ins For Life at school campuses across the county, at Old Courthouse Square and at Cotati Downtown Plaza. In the evening, at 5:00pm, we will meet at Juilliard Park for a candlelit march to Old Courthouse Square where we will hold a vigil for the human and non-human victims of the wildfires that have devastated our home and victims of global climate disasters everywhere. Youth activists, artists, community leaders, and more will lead us in calling for an end to our dependence on fossil fuels and demanding a Green New Deal. Find @SunriseSoCo across social media or email us for details.

With the consequences of climate change becoming ever more clear and dire with each passing day, a new powerful wave of the climate movement has been swelling up over the last couple of years. Young people around the world have been rising up to defend our future, and have been going on strike – every week, all over the planet – for months. In the September Climate Strikes alone, 7.6 million people took to the streets with us. Now, we are preparing for the next wave of Climate Strikes.
Sign up now to be a part of the #ClimateStrikeSoCo!

Con las consecuencias del cambio climático cada vez más claro y grave con cada día que pasa, una nueva ola poderosa del movimiento climático se ha ido incrementando en los últimos años. Los jóvenes de todo el mundo se han levantado para defender nuestro futuro y han estado en huelga, todas las semanas, en todo el planeta, durante meses. Solo en las huelgas climáticas de septiembre, 7.6 millones de personas salieron a las calles con nosotros. Ahora, nos estamos preparando para la próxima ola de huelgas climáticas.

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 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!
We are 100% volunteer and depend on your participation to sustain our efforts!
