At hundreds of events across the globe, including more than 260 in the U.S. alone, hundreds of thousands of people took action for climate, jobs, and justice.

Front-line communities, environmentalists, labor unions, racial and social justice activists, civil rights and faith leader, and youth and immigrant groups came together to hold our elected leaders accountable days before the Global Climate Action Summit.

In the US, Rise for Climate Jobs, and Justice actions included town hall meetings, marches, rallies, voter registration drives, trainings, platform development meetings, mural painting, vigils, teach-ins, and a myriad of opportunities for people to hear about the direct impact climate change is having on communities right now.
