Friday, September 20, 12noon-2pm, Ohio Statehouse

Join OH Climate Strike in Columbus as we strike for the Green New Deal and against government inaction on one of the greatest political challenges of our generation. Starting at 12noon, strikes will be taking place across the state (as well as the country) as we kick off Week for Future, a week of climate-related programming and organizing aimed at educating and empowering Ohioans to stay informed and stay involved against the climate crisis. Columbus’ strike will be held outside the Ohio Statehouse from 12noon to 2pm.

Bring signs, energy, and, most importantly, yourselves as we prepare for a round of speakers to talk about the challenges facing our country concerning climate. Show support as we collectively signal that the status quo is insufficient in dealing with the crisis at hand and that radical legislative and popular action needs to be taken to reverse course. This isn’t just one climate strike, it’s a continuation of a movement that has begun to gain leverage as concepts like the Green New Deal and divestment become mainstream.
