Dear MoveOn member,

This September, world leaders—including President Obama—are coming to New York City for a landmark UN summit on the climate crisis. 

And MoveOn members—along with members of hundreds of other allied organizations, including Avaaz and 350.org—will be there to greet them in the world's largest climate change demonstration: the People's Climate March.

Scientists have made it clear that we're running out of time to avoid catastrophic climate change. Already, communities across the country are facing the destructive impacts of extreme weather like hurricanes, superstorms, droughts, and wildfires. The carbon pollution accelerating climate change needs to be addressed and reduced. Every new report reveals a shorter time frame for action, and every new disaster shows how catastrophic inaction is. Our future is on the line. 

With the whole world watching the climate talks in New York City, we have an unprecedented opportunity to demand climate action. We need to turn up in full force and show world leaders that without a doubt people demand real action on climate change right now.

Can you join us September 21 in New York City for the People's Climate March? 


When you RSVP for the People's Climate March, you will hear directly from the march organizers—a steering committee from allied organizations—with logistics and other updates. Your information won't be shared outside of the purposes of the march. Member privacy is a priority, and we never rent or sell the MoveOn.org list.

The last time world leaders met to discuss climate change—five years ago in Copenhagen—the talks failed. We cannot let that happen again. If world leaders walk away from this summit without seeing a strong, public demand for action, there's no chance that they'll make real commitments on their own. That's why it's so important for you to join the People's March alongside the tens of thousands of others planning to be there in September. 

Can you join us in taking a historic stand at the People's Climate March this September? 


It's time to stand up for the future. Unless we can protect the planet and turn this economy around, our children aren't going to have a chance to survive and thrive. 

That's why it's critical we make this the largest climate demonstration in history. The success of the summit depends a lot more on us than it does on our politicians. If we seize this moment and show real political power, it could open up the space for meaningful action.

MoveOn members are a powerful force, and when we join together, along with our allies—we can make change happen. But it's going to take all of us.


Thanks for all you do.
