We call on all Californians to gather at the state Capitol to demand that our leaders, Biden and Newsom, stop permitting fossil fuels, make a plan to phase out oil and gas and declare a climate emergency. Biden continues to approve fossil fuel projects on federal lands, outpacing Trump's permits. The Newsom administration has issued over a thousand re-drilling permits, with over half within 1km (3200ft) from homes, schools and hospitals.

This family-friendly action will feature a giant puppet show, carnival games, kayaks in the river, performers and speakers who will share how you can get involved in ending the era of Fossil Fuels and building a better future together. Then we will march together to the iconic tower bridge with songs and drums!
