WHAT: Since we Shut Down DC on Monday, the US Government has shown no indication that it will act on climate breakdown. As a result, the Coalition to Shut Down DC will disrupt business-as-usual in the nation’s capital again.

WHERE: McPherson Square at 7AM on Friday, September 27
WHY: The Coalition to Shut Down DC will round out the week of Global Climate Strikes with another series of acts of civil disobedience, this time targeting specific climate criminals. Global heating doesn’t stop for morning rush hour — neither will we.
