Protect Mother Earth. End Climate Capitalism. Support Community Solutions.
San Francisco, CA. Sept 10th and 13th, 2018
The twin crises of capitalism and climate change are destroying the planet, burning our homes, and flooding our communities. We are witnessing unprecedented harm, from the hurricanes that ravaged Puerto Rico, the Caribbean and the Gulf Coast, to wildfires destroying communities along the west coast. At the same time, California passed climate laws (AB 398) that subsidize, and allow the world’s largest corporations to continue destroying our climate and communities with pollution and poverty
In September, Governor Jerry Brown is convening the Global Climate Action Summit (GCAS) in San Francisco to promote his “real climate leadership” credentials on a global stage. But Jerry Brown’s promotion of carbon trading markets and other perverse subsidies to oil, gas and other polluting corporations only perpetuates climate change, and decimates Indigenous communities and Native nations, communities of color and other working class peoples throughout California and around the world.
Such incentives for “climate capitalism” will turn frontline communities into sacrifice zones for decades to come, and despite Brown’s attempts to prove he is different from Trump and the dark forces of climate denial, his “climate leadership” promotes the same corporate agenda – aimed at expanding the dig, burn, drive, dump industries destroying our communities and the air, land and water we depend on.
Join us to stand in solidarity with frontline communities protecting Mother Earth, and cultivating real solutions to the twin crises of climate change and capitalism. Join us to demand that elected leaders stand with our communities on the streets, and not the climate profiteers gathered inside.
On September 10th, join us in a mass non-violence action at one of the locations where climate profiteers will meet prior to the Global Climate Action Summit (GCAS).
On September 13th, join us in a mass non-violence action at the doors of GCAS.
We invite all leaders who are marketing and trading our futures, to return all stolen wealth and resources, and reinvest in frontline communities organizing a Just Transition to local, living economies guided by the earth’s natural cycles and the needs of all peoples, not the profits of a few. Join us to challenge an economic agenda that also militarizes our lands, gentrifies and displaces our communities, wages gendered and racialized violence against our peoples, incarcerates our youth, and exploits and enslaves our natural and human resources to further concentrate profits and power.
Our actions will be wrapped in prayer and committed with love for all we hold dear. Our actions will embody visionary and beautiful solutions cultivated by our communities whose deep roots are bound in protecting the fragile balance between Mother Earth & Father Sky.
We call for all peoples around the world to join us on the streets of San Francisco as we tell Jerry Brown and his friends that “real climate leaders” stand with people, not the pollution profiteers.
Join us on September 10th and 13th to Protect Mother Earth, End Climate Capitalism and Support Community-led Solutions for the health and wellbeing of all life.
