On November 4th, tens of thousands of people will converge in Washington, D.C. for a truly historic march to demand no more U.S. aid to Israel and an end to the siege on Gaza now. Massive sister actions will take place around the world, and the Bay Area will be no exception! Join us in San Francisco on November 4th to show that the Bay stands with Palestine!
Continued international pressure is the only way to end the genocidal Israeli siege on Gaza. Its residents continue to live cut off from food, water and electricity by Israel. The Gazan hospital system has completely collapsed from lack of fuel sources.
On an international day of action to Power Up for Climate Solutions, join an action to protest Costco’s plan to build a mega new gas station next to its Novato warehouse.
The project would include 14 fuel dispensers that accommodate 28 fueling positions, with three 40,000-gallon gasoline underground storage tanks and a 1,500-gallon additive storage tank.
The site is right next to a pediatric clinic and a pristine watershed, and close to a huge wildlife area.
In September 2022 the Marin County Superior Court ordered Novato to set aside its March 2021 approval of the Costco Gas Station, agreeing with seven concerned residents of Novato, who filed a lawsuit in April 2021, that the city needs to conduct an environmental review because the project might have significant environmental impacts related to air quality and health risks.
The City is currently drafting an Environmental Impact Report (EIR). Once a draft EIR is completed, likely towards the end of 2023, it will be made available for public review and comment. Subsequently, Planning Commission and City Council hearing dates will be scheduled.
After that the Novato City Council will vote again on approving or disapproving the building of a mega Costco gas station in the Vintage Oaks Shopping Center.

Calling all Bay Area families! Join us for a kid-friendly action and teach-in at the Oakland Federal Building! We will have art, music, a chance to record messages to children in Gaza, storytime for younger kids, a teach-in for older kids, and more. This is a great action to share with friends or family who are less comfortable bringing kids to big protests! Tell your neighbors, classmates, cousins, daycare families, and everyone else!
We demand:
1. An immediate ceasefire in Gaza.
2. Let in sufficient humanitarian aid to Gaza.
3. Human rights and self-determination for all families in Pales
APEC will have major impacts on the climate crisis, the global economy, human rights, worker rights and more for decades to come. Meanwhile, as corporate CEOs and lobbyists are keynoting panels with world leaders, the people have been completely shut out of these discussions. Furthermore, APEC will only greenwash the climate catastrophe we are facing and will do nothing to phase us out of an economy based on fossil fuels.
After the rally there will be a march to within sight & sound of Moscone Center. Local Bay Area climate justice organizers are part of a large coalition of labor, trade, diaspora, student, local communities and climate justice groups organizing saying NO to APEC’s corporate agenda.
Please, if you can, join us on Sunday!
With Love and Rage and Action,
Extinction Rebellion SF Bay Area

Please join the Green Party in objecting to and shutting down the APEC summit in any way(s) that are non-violent!
On Wednesday, November 15th, we’re planning a large scale, well organized, high visibility action to SHUT DOWN the APEC Summit. Form your teams and affinity groups, or just show up, and join us in the streets.
MORE INFO: Call to Action: SHUT DOWN APEC! SHUT DOWN THE CEO SUMMIT ON NOVEMBER 15th!
How dare they hold this .01% power mongering event in SF! How dare they call it “cooperative.” Of course, it’s about much more than Asia and Pacific nation trade, more than about taking control of the economy via, in part, unaccountable, unelected corporate tribunals that rule in favor of corporations suing states and nations to overturn labor and ecological protections. It’s about much more than ecocide. Many heads of empire will attend including Biden. 100’s of mega corporate CEO’s and thousands of lobbyists.
The United States and Israel are committing a genocide against the Palestinian people. Our university and the UC system are complicit in this genocide through investments in companies that fund the Israeli war machine.
With over 11,000 Palestinians martyred and no ceasefire in sight, we encourage you all to NOT buy anything from UC Berkeley affiliated stores or dining halls.
Stand in solidarity with us by practicing BDS and demanding this institution divests from weapons manufacturers that arm Israel. With BDS is how we shut down the war machine
On Thursday Nov 16th at 12:30, we will be at the Campanile steps to honor our martyrs. We encourage you all to join us.
