Newcastle Global Climate Strike

To everyone who cares about a safe climate future, this is your invitation to join the Global #ClimateStrike—people around the world will be coming together to make a statement about the climate crisis.

Australia is already on the frontlines of the climate crisis. Prolonged drought. Flash flooding. Catastrophic bushfires, severe cyclones and heatwaves. On September 20, three days before the UN Emergency Climate Summit, school students are inviting everyone to join them for our biggest ever global #ClimateStrike.

By taking time off school and work together around the world, we’ll show our politicians that people everywhere want climate justice and we’re not going away until we get it. We’ll strike in solidarity for everyone who’s already being hurt by the climate crisis and everyone who will be impacted if we don’t act now: workers, first nations people, young people, mining communities and more.

We’re going to take our movement to the next level. If you’re an adult, please take the day off and invite your friends, workmates and families to join us.

Join us in Civic Park, Newcastle, where we will assemble at 12pm to march around the city. When we return to Civic Park there will be live music and speeches.

See you on September 20 to strike for climate justice.
