On Saturday, April 29th thousands of individuals will mobilize in Washington, D.C. and across the United States and the world for the 2017 People's Climate March (PCM) for Climate, Jobs & Justice. The Women's Global Call for Climate Justice (WGCCJ) Campaign strongly supports the Women for Climate Justice (WCJ) Contingent at the PCM. Today, we ask YOU to join us in amplifying the WCJ demands this weekend and beyond by signing our petition here: https://action.manifesta.net/p/womenclimatejusticePCM The Women's Global Call for Climate Justice and the WCJ Contingent call for:
An end to climate denialism, extractive economies & fossil fuel industry
Women's rights, indigenous peoples rights, rural community rights, immigrant rights, LGBTQI rights to be at the core of all climate policies and action
A just and equitable transition that includes access to safe, just and renewable energy and decent work opportunities for women while redistributing care work
We will march as a diverse, intersectional coalition of women's groups, climate justice organizations, and allies with a strong voice and demands that will echo beyond the march. The signatories of this petition will be added to the WGCCJ Statement of Solidarity and shared via social media to amplify our demands and highlight our commitment to climate justice.
