The weekend before the Global Climate Action Summit in San Francisco, the Peoples Climate Movement will lead a nation-wide mobilization: Rise for Climate, Jobs, and Justice. The first action will be on Thursday, September 6th, as New Yorkers gather in lower Manhattan at 5:30pm demanding immediate action from Governor Andrew Cuomo, Mayor Bill de Blasio, and all elected officials. Join us to Rise for Climate, Jobs, and Justice and march for our demands to:

• Just transition to 100% renewable energy now.

• Halt all fossil fuel infrastructure.

• Make corporate polluters pay.
