Stand in support of the Youths who are taking the Federal Government to court over its active role in pushing the world to climate chaos. Our Honolulu Solidarity Action will coincide with the beginning of what has been dubbed the #TrialoftheCentury.
Join us in front of the Prince Kuhio Federal Building and be a part of the Climate Change #TrialoftheCentury.
We'll meet on the corner of Ala Moana and Punchbowl in front of the 300 Ala Moana sign.
More details coming soon.
Our freedom depends on a climate system that will sustain human life. Let's show the government that it has a duty to prepare and implement a Climate Recovery Plan to protect our basic and most fundamental rights!

#SeeYouInCourt
BACKGROUND:
The #TrialoftheCentury starts on October 29! The 21 Juliana v. US youth plaintiffs are taking the federal government to court for violating their constitutional rights by knowingly contributing to climate change. The science-based National Climate Recovery Plan the plaintiffs seek would end the reign of fossil fuels and lead to swift decarbonization. This lawsuit could change everything. There will be rallies at federal courthouses across the country. Join us in Honolulu on October 26 when we stand with these brave young people as they take the federal government to court!
