Over 950 organizations are for the Peoples Climate March in New York City on September 21, just ahead of the UN Climate Summit. The event is billing itself as the largest climate march in history, and from the hundreds of organizations that have pledged their support, it just may be poised to reach this goal.
Environmental organizations, social justice advocates, labor unions and faith groups are coming together to call for action on climate change. This looks like an alliance of unusual bedfellowslabor joining hands with faith joining hands with national environmental groups, Eddie Bautista, executive director of New York City Environmental Justice Alliance, told EcoWatch.
The list includes a number of the biggest names in environmental advocacy, including The Sierra Club, the World Wildlife Fund, the National Wildlife Federation and the Earth Day Network. Bill McKibben and 350 have been particularly vocal supporters of the march, and is planning to release a documentary just prior to the event. The documentary, called "Disruption," is about the urgent need for political action to fight climate change. The trailer also makes a pretty eloquent argument for the why the march matters:
