Greta decided to continue striking every Friday until the Swedish policies provided a safe pathway well under 2-degree C, i.e. in line with the Paris agreement. \n\nSanta Cruz and Watsonville students are planning to join Greta Thunberg and millions of hopeful protesters around the world in a Global Climate Strike on September 20th, with more climate emergency actions happening throughout the week. \n\nWe want to involve as many people as possible. Join us! \n\nCurrently Planned Events:\n\nARRT Build for Climate Strike Sep 7 & 14\nhttps://scruzclimate.org/arrt-build-for-climate-strike-sep-7-14/\n\nFri Sep 20, 4-8pm, Youth march after school to Louden Nelson and Community Education Forum including music art activities, maybe a basketball tournament and information sharing.\n\nFri Sep 20 – 3:30 – 6pm, Youth Action in Watsonville, Watsonville Plaza\n\nSat Sep 21 – 2-6pm – inner.action 40831- Youth climate groups from two counties meet at the Summit House on HWY 17 – details Instagram inner.action\nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/1074211139456342/\n\nSun Sep 22 – 6-8pm, Eat for the Earth Climate Dinner and Presentation\nhttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/eat-for-the-earth-climate-dinner-and-presentation-tickets-70435898669\n\nSun Sep 22 – Novasutras Equinox Meditation – 12:30-1:30pm – details to be posted\nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/1342599949248428/\n\nMon Sep 23 – Extinction Rebellion – US Day of Action\nhttps://www.xrsc.earth/\n\nTue Sep 24 – 12-1:30pm – Citizens Climate Lobby Street Action\nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/670313816769332/\n\nTue Sep 24 – 7-9pm, Faith in Our Future – Interfaith event – Peace United Church\nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/501359393961598/\n\nWed Sep 25 – 5-9pm Real Democracy Teach -In by Within Reach at Louden Nelson Center\nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/387054012226568/\n\nThu Sep 26 – 5-6:30pm – Citizens Climate Lobby Street Action 2\nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/482360672559007/\n\nThu Sep 26 – 7pm, Movie “Blowout” – about the fracking industry – Live Oak Grange, 7pm – discussion with local filmmaker after the movie\nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/356160028657332/\n\nSep 27 – BIG STRIKE DAY – Will include Youth GREEN COMMONS festival at the Farmers market site on Cedar St. Multiple actions involving school and college students and various local groups.
