Millions of school strikers have shown us they’re serious about climate action - and now adults are getting involved,

School strikers are calling on everyone - young people, parents, workers, and all concerned citizens - to join massive climate strikes and a week of action starting on September 20. Cottage Grove residents plan to rally at 10 a.m. at Opal Whitley Park and 11 a.m. at Bohemia Park to show the community's concern over this issue.

From the event description on Facebook:

People all over the world will use their power to stop “business as usual” in the face of the climate emergency. We will join young people in the streets to demand an end to the age of fossil fuels and emergency action to avoid climate breakdown.

We hope to have speakers, teach-ins, kids activities, music and more! Updates as the planning gets going.
