We Will Not Be Bystanders - Climate March

  • Washington Square Park Washington Square New York, NY 10012 United States (map)

Climate change is real, and it’s here, now. When governments continue to approve new fossil fuel projects while the world literally burns, they are putting all our lives in jeopardy. You wouldn’t ignore a hit and run, and we can’t ignore this.

We can no longer afford to be bystanders. No one is coming to save us. If we want a livable future for ourselves and our children, it’s up to us to make it happen. It’s time to be the change we need because we have no other choice.

On April 16, join your fellow humans in the streets, as we tell those in power that we refuse to stand idly by as they fail to act on the greatest threat our species has ever faced. Refuse to be a bystander as floods, droughts, storms, and fires all bring our society closer to the brink of collapse. They say action is the antidote to despair – join us.
