 followed by inspiring stories by local activists.\n\nYouth v Gov, the 
 documentary\n\nYouth v. Gov is young people around the world who are suing 
 their governments for actions causing and worsening the climate crisis. 
 Youth v. Gov is a legal campaign, a hashtag, and a film. The documentary 
 film YOUTH v GOV follows the story of Juliana vs. United States. In 2015, 
 Kelsey Juliana and 20 co-plaintiffs, aged 7 to 15 (now 15 to 26), filed a 
 ground-breaking lawsuit against the U.S. government, a case continuing to 
 this day, and igniting many others both in the U.S. and abroad. Represented 
 by the legal non-profit Our Children’s Trust, the Juliana 21 asserted 
 that the U.S. government has willfully acted over six decades to create the 
 climate crisis, thus endangering their constitutional rights to life, 
 liberty, and property, as well as essential public trust resources. Their 
 case included the testimony of prominent scientists and boxes of evidence 
 dating back to the 1970s of the government’s longstanding knowledge of 
 climate danger.\n\nThe heart and soul of this story are the young activists 
 themselves, with their varied environmental plights, their growth, their 
 talents and charisma. Hailing from across the country, the Juliana 21 
 encompass cultural, economic, racial, and geographic diversity, with many 
 from marginalized communities. Their diversity speaks not only to the 
 universal impacts of climate change, but to the inclusion required if we 
 are to build a better, more just future together.\n\nTheir unrelenting 
 passion to fight for climate justice makes us yearn for their 
 success—which would not only make history but change the future … our 
 future. Come experience the hope and resilience of the Juliana 21. Discover 
 how they have strategized to keep the lawsuit alive … and also how we may 
 help.\n\nCase update and stories of local non-profits actions\n\nThe film 
 will be followed by the latest legal update and a description of some of 
 the other major youth cases that Juliana has spawned, presented by Ami Chen 
 Mills. Open yourself to be moved!\n\nGuest activists will then share 
 inspiring stories about their volunteer work related to climate issues and 
 social justice.\n\n* Citizens' Climate Lobby:
