Green New Deal Town Hall
Wednesday May 29 – 5:30-7:30 – Fayetteville Library Walker Room
Town Hall for tonight CANCELED FOR TORNADO WARNINGS!
Storms will continue all day, with tornado warnings and flash flood warnings through the evening.
This is the climate emergency in action friends.
Town Hall is being rescheduled for June 20. The emergency will still be live, but maybe we can miss the tornados. Stay tuned.
This Town Hall is for concerned people – youth and adult – who want to know more about the Green New Deal, The Energy Innovation Act, Juliana vs. the United States (Our Children’s Trust), as well as local climate impacts. . It will include lots of creative elements, like art, writing, music, food, and puppets. Speakers will include youth leaders who are very knowledgeable about the climate situation and will share important perspectives from their points of view.
The group is inspired by young Swedish activist Greta Thunberg, The Sunrise Movement, Our Children’s Trust, and many other projects by young leaders in our country and abroad. They are realizing that our broken political system is not acting to protect their futures. They see that they need to speak out more forcefully if they want a future worth living in.
Social time will start at 5:30, with art making for youth and children, puppets, music and food. The program will begin at 6:00.
