If you're on the fence about heading to the People's Climate March on Sept. 21st, you may be wondering: will it matter if I go?
That's a reasonable question. It's certainly true that marching alone is not going to stop climate change. But by bringing the whole movement together, we let the world's leaders understand that there are strong demands for real action.
The New York march is about the whole climate fight the world over. Together we hope to make a statement for ourselves, and on behalf of all of our brothers and sisters from pole to pole. With so many world leaders assembled in New York, as they will be the week of Sept. 21st, we need folks on this continent to help make that global passion visible to the powers-that-be.
Of course marches don't work by themselves. Crucially important work will be done in the weeks and months after Sept. 21. But that work will be more powerful because we've stood together, and felt each other's strength.
Wilton Go Green will be leaving by train from the Wilton Station at 8:10am on Sunday, September 21st. The march starts at 11:30am at Columbus Circle. RSVP to info@wiltongogreen.org and let us know you are coming!
