The science is clear: the climate crisis is a fossil fuels crisis. It's time to End the Era of Fossil Fuels in a just and equitable way!

Fridays for Future is a global youth movement for climate justice. Twice a year we organize a Global Day of Climate Action where we all take to the streets across the world on the same day. Following last year's March to End Fossil Fuels in NYC, this year's theme continues the #EndFossilFuels narrative.

This year, FFF Orange County will be joining Youth Climate Strike LA's event for the Global Day of Climate Action on April 19!! We will take the train up to LA together as a group, if you would like to join us, please see below for information on which train we will be taking (we also have a google form to coordinate carpooling incase anyone needs a ride). There will also be two sign-making events in OC in preparation for April 19th (see below for dates and locations).

Art Build / Sign-Making:

• (1) Thursday March 28 at 5pm - Hart Park in Orange

• (2) Saturday April 13 at 11am - Heritage Community Park in Irvine

Trip to LA by Train:

A group of us will gather at the Irvine as well as the Orange train stations to take the last Metrolink that morning down to LA together. The train leaves at 9:04am in Irvine and at 9:21am in Orange. You can also board the train on your own at any of the other stations it stops at (e.g., Santa Ana, Anaheim, Fullerton) and meet us on the train or at Union Station.

See this google doc for information about how to get a ticket. Metrolink tickets are free for anyone under 18 and college students (see doc for how to get a free ticket).

NOTE: FFFOC members will be taking the Metrolink train because it stops at more stations and because of the free student ticket. However, there is also an Amtrak train to L.A. Union Station that leaves a little later in case you cannot make the Metrolink train (this one stops in Irvine and Anaheim but NOT Orange).

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to reach out to us at orange-ca@fridaysforfutureusa.org
