Green Sanctuary Folks

 

Today, I signed a petition in support of the 21 youth plaintiffs, from across the United States and including 11 Black, Brown, and Indigenous youth, in the children’s constitutional climate case Juliana v. United States (https://www.ourchildrenstrust.org/juliana-v-us)!?source=email <https://www.ourchildrenstrust.org/juliana-v-us)!?source=email&> & Sign the petition today (https://bit.ly/Petition-DOJ),?source=email& launched by People vs. Fossil Fuels and directed to the Biden Department of Justice (DOJ) and Attorney General Merrick Garland, for individuals to call on Attorney General Garland to end the DOJ's opposition to this landmark youth-led climate lawsuit proceeding to trial.

Despite President Biden’s promises to listen to youth and address the climate crisis, his DOJ is still actively opposing the Juliana case, denying the youth plaintiffs’ rights and seeking to prevent them from presenting evidence to a judge in open court of how their own government is causing them harm. We need our nation’s courts to do their duty and protect the rights of our children to a safe climate now! 

In just a few minutes, you can join thousands of individuals like me from across the U.S. and around the world who are demanding that the Biden DOJ end its opposition to the Juliana case proceeding to trial. 

Take Action Today!

The time for climate justice is now. Let the youth be heard!
