Here for @NYC_Patch covering the #ClimateStrike in NYC. Crowds starting to gather at Foley Square.pic.twitter.com/SkLDJO9Dmg
Meet Molly and Fiona, 15 year olds of Rockland County. Their principal wouldn’t excuse their absences but they still showed up for the strike. “We want to be able to live on an Earth that’s clean and safe,” says Molly, who was in a climate club in elementary school.pic.twitter.com/2mQDXI9AiM
“We want to know that there will be a future for generations and generations after us,” says Fiona.
Natalie, 13, of Bensonhurst says: ”This is going to be something that’s everyone’s gonna see and hopefully actually impacts the government to do something.” She wants lawmakers to “put the blame on the corporations and not the individuals and that will make the bigger impact.”pic.twitter.com/R2O45Lr2y3
About 11:30, half an hour before rally “officially” begins at Foley Square. No more coal no more oil keep the carbon in the soil.”pic.twitter.com/6T0cZioPuf
Chaya and Rose, both 14, met at an upstate “hippie” summer camp where they learned about activism and enviro issues. Chaya, of UWS, says: “We’re not just kids. We’re not fighting because we’re bored. We actually wanna grow up and have a future.”pic.twitter.com/PDIHetxK9v
Rose took an Amtrak by herself from Philly last night (she was scared but it turned out ok!) She’s here to fight for climate action not just for herself - but future generations after her.
Keep in mind. This rally coincides with next week's United Nations climate summit. But it also marks two years since Hurricane Maria devastated Puerto Rico, where thousands of lives were lost.https://twitter.com/sydneyp1234/status/1175100681247764486 …
