In solidarity with the Global Climate Strike, the Climate Action Lab proposes “A People’s Climate Plan for New York City?”
September 20, 2019
Today marks the beginning of the Global Climate Strike, taking place in New York and across the world, and which runs until September 27. Actions will be taking place, bringing together climate activists of all ages to demand an end to the age of fossil fuels and to move decisively toward ending the climate crisis.
Below you will find A People’s Climate Plan for New York City? This pamphlet is being released today, 20 September 2019, in solidarity with the week of Climate Strike actions. The pamphlet, considered a living document, emerges from the work of the Climate Action Lab at the Graduate Center, City University of New York. It crystallizes a year-long series of workshops with activists, researchers, and artists intended to reimagine climate politics through the lens of the city as both the frontline impact zone and the source of grassroots alternatives informed by the imperatives of climate justice.
