DC Climate Strike Plans To Return To The Streets On Friday

Washington DC, September 26 – For the last day of the Global Climate Strikes, the Coalition to Shut Down DC will return to the streets to demand climate justice.

#ShutDownDC returns to the streets on the last day of the Global Climate Strikes to continue clarion call for climate action

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.

WHO: 198 Methods, 350 DC, Backbone Campaign, Beyond Extreme Energy, Black Lives Matter DMV, Chesapeake Climate Action Network Action Fund, Code Pink, Extinction Rebellion DC, Friends of the Earth Action, Friends Meeting in Washington Social Concerns Committee, Labor Network for Sustainability, Metro DMV Democratic Socialists of America, Movement for a People’s Party, Rising Tide North America, Sunrise Movement DC, Werk for Peace and World Beyond War.

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.

HOW: Please reach out for more information or interviews: press@strikedc.org.
