Email us at sunrisemovementavl@gmail.com! WHAT Walk out of work or school to disrupt &quot;business as usual&quot; and demand that the climate crisis gets the attention it deserves! The walkouts will be followed by a central demonstration in downtown Asheville thereafter: hear from youth speakers, followed by an 11-minute &quot;die-in&quot; by those in attendance to symbolize that we only have 11 years to undo the climate crisis.   WHERE Walkouts will occur from various middle schools, high schools, and businesses throughout the city. All participants are encouraged to convene on the steps and sidewalks in front of Asheville City Hall for the demonstration. (Address is listed above.) WHEN Walkouts: 11a Speakers and Die-In: 12-1p WHY Since Greta Thunberg’s first school strike for climate a year ago, young people have revolutionized the way humanity perceives the scope of the climate crisis. On September 20, 2019, young people will kick off a worldwide week of action with an international strike. September 20th will be the largest mass mobilization for climate action in human history. This time, adults will be joining the youth-led call for climate action to demand world leaders take meaningful steps to address this crisis with the urgency it requires. Youth and adults will stand arm-in-arm in the fight together for the future of humanity. Call-to-Action We turn to the City of Asheville to treat the climate crisis like the emergency that it is and join cities around the country and world who have taken part in the Climate Emergency Mobilization to take real action. We urgently ask our elected officials to propose and pass a Climate Emergency Resolution and commit wholeheartedly to a plan that meets the resolution. More info here: https://www.theclimatemobilization.org/climate-emergency-campaign Later that Day The Climate Strike kicks off an entire week of action! We&#x27;ll continue our participation by returning to downtown Asheville from 5:30-7:30p for the Asheville Climate Justice Rally, where we will be doing voter registration, tabling, and also partaking in the speaker panel.
