Sep 8: Local organizing meeting for People's Climate March

From Pittsburgh to New York City, let's make climate change history!

In September, world leaders are coming to New York City for a UN summit on the climate crisis. UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon is urging governments to support an ambitious global agreement to dramatically reduce global warming pollution.  With our future on the line and the whole world watching, we’ll take a stand to bend the course of history.  On September 21, hundreds of Pittsburghers will join thousands of people from around the world on the streets of New York City to demand the world we know is within our reach:  a world with an economy that works for people and the planet;  a world safe from the ravages of climate change;  a world with good jobs, clean air and water, and healthy communities.

Join the Pittsburgh mobilization for the People’s Climate March.  Learn about this historic mobilization and find out how to get involved — here in Pittsburgh, or in New York City!  Find out how to take part in this mobilization and hear from local environmental, labor and faith leaders who are mobilizing for the People’s Climate March as well as organizers who are working on the ground in New York City to make this historic event possible.

7pm at the First Unitarian Church of Pittsburgh (605 Morewood Ave, Pittsburgh, PA).  Light refreshments will be served.  For more information, contact randy.francisco@sierraclub.org
