Seattle Climate Walkout
Start: Friday, September 20, 2019• 9:00 AM
On Sept. 20, millions around the world are joining student climate strikers in the streets -- demanding climate justice and an end to the age of fossil fuels.
Seattle's #ClimateStrike is a full day of youth-led action, including a peaceful march and powerful rally at City Hall. Before the march, we’ll gather at Cal Anderson Park for Climate Justice Fest: an interactive, family-friendly space for everyone to learn, skill-up, play and plug in to the movement.
Will you join Seattle and global youth leaders calling for action at the scale of the crisis?
9-12pm Climate Justice Fest @ Cal Anderson Park
12-1pm March from Cal Anderson to City Hall (detailed route info coming soon)
1-3pm Youth-led rally for climate justice @ City Hall
Climate Justice Fest is open to all, with trainings, climate movement orientations, music, interactive art and and workshops led by youth and adult allies (more details coming soon -- keep an eye on the FB event)
