On Sunday, September 21st in New York City, one of the greatest events happened; The Climate March! Though there was not nearly enough media coverage, there was a peaceful gathering of approximately 400,000 people joined together.
Signs were made and carried, talks were given, information was shared. There was not a moment where an opportunity for learning was not offered.People from all walks of life, as well as celebrities and politicians marched together to make the actions toward the climate recognized and changed.
"Actions Change the World!" As we marched for change, a feeling of solidarity was overwhelming. Will there be a change? To this date,
“The front-lines of the climate crisis are low-income people,
communities of color and indigenous communities here in the US and around the
globe. We are the hardest hit by both climate disruption––the storms, floods
and droughts––as well as by the extractive, polluting and wasteful industries
causing global warming,” said Cindy Wiesner, Co-Director of The Climate Justice
Alliance.
The next step is to acknowledge the dire need for ACTION and CHANGE!
