Youth vs. Apocalypse invites all students, teachers, and allies to tell the California Teachers Association to stop supporting investment in fossil fuels.
YVA and other youth have been campaigning for the California State Teachers Retirement Fund (CalSTRS) to divest from fossil fuel. They have testified at many meetings, held demonstrations, and built a growing movement of support.
But the California Teachers Association (CTA), one of two state unions for California public school teachers, has been actively blocking this effort, supporting investment in the same fossil fuel industry that is causing global destruction, environmental racism, and misinformation. CTA has a huge influence on CalSTRS and where teachers’ money goes.
Come join Youth vs. Apocalypse to target CTA headquarters. Also, tell your teachers or any teachers you know to go to bit.ly/cateachersdivest and take action.
