Hundreds of Thousands Fill New York Streets to “Change Everything” and Save the Earth!
September 22, 2014 | Revolution Newspaper | revcom.us
More than 300,000 people filled the streets of New York City on Sunday, September 21 in the People’s Climate March “to change everything” and save the Earth. Worldwide, thousands upon thousands more joined in 2,808 solidarity events in 166 countries. This is an extremely important and significant outpouring at this moment of grave environmental peril. We encourage readers to dig deeply into the problem and the solution: read Revolution’s special issue on the environment: “State of EMERGENCY! The Plunder of Our Planet, The Environmental Catastrophe & The Real Revolutionary Solution,” watch Revolution environmental correspondent Orpheus Reed’s recent talk at Revolution Books, NYC, and stay tuned to revcom.us for further coverage of the People's Climate March.
This Revolution special issue focuses on the environmental emergency that now faces humanity and earth's ecosystems. In this issue we show:
- the dimensions of the emergency...
- the source of its causes in the capitalist system, and the impossibility of that system solving this crisis...
- a way out and way forward for humanity—a revolutionary society in which we could actually live as custodians of nature, rather than as its plunderers.
