Zero Hour: Seattle Youth Climate Lobby Day

July 19, 2018 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

We’re gearing up for Zero Hour Seattle, part of the global youth climate march on July 21, demanding bold action on climate and environmental justice: https://www.facebook.com/events/456930044742088/

Before we march, we lobby! We will advocate to our lawmakers for a livable future with just and sustainable solutions. Join us for our press conference at 12 p.m. on the steps of City Hall where youth will speak to the public about our demands of elected officials, the need for action, and the upcoming Zero Hour Seattle march on July 21. Contact zerohourseattle@gmail.com with press inquiries.

Young people demand that our elected officials reject the corrupting monetary influence of fossil fuel executives, lobbyists, or their front groups, and commit to protect our health, climate, and democracy instead. Now is not the time to back down. #thisiszerohour #youthvgov #climatejustice

Then join us for creative community building and sign making at the Zero Hour Youth Art Build on July 20: https://www.facebook.com/events/467014680389064/

We’re looking for youth to join our Zero Hour Seattle leadership collective – if you are a young person interested in organizing the march and lobby day please contact us: http://www.zerohourseattle.org/get-involved
