To the editor:
Join people from all walks of life for a massive climate march ahead of the United Nations Climate Ambition Summit. This event will take place in Midtown Manhattan on Sunday, Sept. 17, at 1 p.m. We will demand that our leaders show real climate leadership by rejecting new fossil-fuel projects and by declaring a climate emergency.
From the wildfires in Canada to record-breaking temperatures around the globe, we are reminded almost daily that our world is rapidly warming. The amount of heat trapping carbon dioxide in our atmosphere has increased 50% since the start of the industrial revolution.
In order to stop this warming, we must rapidly transition away from burning carbon-dioxide-polluting fossil fuels to nonpolluting sources of energy.
Mark your calendars and please join us Sept. 17 to let your voice be heard. Invite your friends and family to join us, too.
