Climate Justice Rally

The Side With Love Climate Change & Environmental Justice working group invites you to join a Climate Justice Rally sponsored by Sunrise Worcester, 350 Central Mass, and Worcester Congregations for Climate Action. 

On Friday March 19th, young people across the globe will be striking and rallying around climate action with the theme of #NoMoreEmptyPromises.

Here in Worcester, the climate rally will begin at City Hall with picketing starting at 4 PM, followed by speeches and performances around 5, and ending with a march to St. Vincent’s hospital in solidarity with the striking nurses.

Everyone and anyone is welcome to attend. It is required for masks to be worn at all times and that people practice physical distancing. For more information visit: https://www.facebook.com/events/255732996057505/
