Join us at the SF Federal Building on Jan. 20th from 11am-1pm for a rally with speakers and art, as we demand that President Biden:

1. Declare a Climate Emergency
2. Stop All Fossil Fuel Projects
3. Honor Indigenous & Human Rights.

Across the country - climate, indigenous, and allied groups are coming together for a Day of Action, in honor of the late & beloved Pipeline Activist and Water Protector Joye Braun. We are calling on Biden to Declare a Climate Emergency and bringing attention to our local fossil fuel fights, as well as our local environmental impacts, that require immediate, drastic action to protect our communities from further harm.

Now is a pivotal moment to push the President to take bold climate action and stop the sacrifice of our frontline, Black, Brown, and Indigenous communities to the greed of Big Oil & Gas.

January 20th marks the 2 year anniversary of President Biden’s inauguration, and the halfway point for his current administration. It also marks the birthday of an extraordinary activist and pillar of the national fossil fuel resistance space, Joye Braun, who we sadly lost in November. Joye, a citizen of the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribal Nation, was instrumental in fighting and ending devastating fossil fuel projects such as the Dakota Access Pipeline and Keystone XL, the latter of which we are also celebrating on the two year anniversary of its death.

We are showing up with People vs. Fossil Fuel groups across the country, demanding that Biden exercise his power to Stop Fossil Fuel Projects and Declare a Climate Emergency – and our local climate fights show why.

We’ve seen flaring at the Martinez Refinery just in this last month, ongoing health and pollution concerns from the Chevron Richmond Refinery, and countless instances of our frontline communities facing harsh impacts from poor air quality, toxic substances, and limited resources. The climate emergency is already here – we need Biden to step up and do something about it.

Now, more than ever, we must push the President to act on all of our demands! It is our job to hold him accountable to be the climate president and speed the end of the fossil fuel era. To learn more about Biden’s executive powers to stop fossil fuels,   visit: https://bidensclimatepowers.org/'
