Join us in Madison at noon, outside the Capitol Building on the State Street corner, for a rally and press conference urging our leaders to take the necessary actions to address this crisis.
T-Shirts, Stickers, Yard Signs, food, and so much more will be available! There will be petitions to sign and comments to submit to various leaders in charge of protecting our land, water and air.
We will have a brief press conference inside the capitol building where young people and partners will share comments urging Josh Kaul to sue the fossil fuel industry for causing climate change.
