If Trump withdraws from Paris Climate Agreement, should we have a day when everything stops?

If not a day, then an hour of no traffic? No commerce? No movement?

And if so, what should be the day and what organizations should lead it?

If we don't protest his cruel and willfully ignorant act on this, we are dooming the world to an even worse future than we now face.

Any thoughts/suggestions?

The women's march terrified them. It would need to be that big or bigger.

Maybe call it "The Day The Earth Stood Still"
Or something like that!



Actually my wife and I just watched it the other night on the Netflix. (The original) hadn't seen it in decades. Still a great movie.
