Earth Day Virtual Rally

April 22, 2020 @ 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm

In a time where community and togetherness are needed more than ever, join us to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the first Earth Day by rallying together for climate justice—from wherever you are.

This will be a historic event: the largest digital rally for climate justice Portland has ever seen! Join us to learn about campaigns for climate justice here in Portland: YouthPass for All, the Oregon Green New Deal, and the need for a true People’s Bailout to survive this crisis and build resiliency for the climate crisis.

LINEUP:

  • A dynamic panel from OPAL’s Youth Environmental Justice Alliance, on their campaign for a regional-wide YouthPass: free public transit for everyone 18 and under throughout the Metro-region.
  • Portland City Commissioner JoAnn Hardesty
  • Poetry from Portland’s youth climate activists
  • Exclusive update on the Oregon Green New Deal from Khanh Pham and Jose  Mikalauskas
  • Ways to make art and take action from home
  • …more to be announced!
