Description
Join over 50 organizations and thousands of citizens in San Francisco to rally and march in solidarity with the huge Forward on Climate demonstration in Washington, DC (both events February 17). We will encircle the State Department Office at One Market Plaza and demand that the Department reject Keystone XL tar sands pipeline permit.Why this matters - The way forward on climate is clear: President Obama must start cutting carbon from today’s biggest polluters—power plants—and stop the Keystone XL tar sands pipeline to avoid adding more carbon pollution tomorrow.
Why march now - President Obama understands the severity of the climate crisis and can lead the world to solve it, but he needs to hear from his constituents that this is a priority. Let’s march together and give the President the support he needs to move Forward on Climate!
