Hi all,

Hope you are getting excited! We are less than two days away from the march and I for one am getting pumped! Here is a sample of some of the amazing art you'll see day of!

Social Media:

On the day of, we'll be using the following hashtags:

#peoplesclimate

#ittakesroot

#justtransition

#preserveourcommunities

Here are some sample tweets.

Sandy:

• #rebuildajustNY for cleaner, safer and greener communities impacted by #climatechange

Global leaders are taking the wrong action

• #UNclimatesummit leaders ARE taking action on climate, and its not the #ClimateAction we need. #FalsePromises #ItTakesRoots #PeoplesClimate
• #ClimateJustice VS #FossilFuelishness. #JustTransition #PeoplesClimate
• #ClimateJustice VS Wall St Polluters. #JustTransition #PeoplesClimate

Frontline Communities know what action should be taken

• Communities on frontlines of #climatecrisis know what it takes to weather the storm. #ItTakesRoots #PeoplesClimate
• #ClimateAction is _______, NOT _______. #PeoplesClimate (fill in blank, i.e. “Zero Waste Systems, NOT Incinerators”, “Public Transportation, NOT Mega Highways.”, “Reduced Pollution, NOT Carbon Offsets”, “Community Solutions, NOT Green Capitalism”, etc.

The roots of the climate crisis are economic

• We’re in #ClimateCrisis because the 1% control the economy. Communities are taking #ClimateAction to create jobs. #PeoplesClimate
• #JustTransition = #CommunitySolutions to cut emissions, create jobs & build a better economy for people & planet. #PeoplesClimate

See you in the streets!
