Events

As part of the March 15 Global Climate Strike, join students and faculty across campus as we walk out to demand urgent, tangible action on climate change from policymakers from both the University and the State of Michigan. We will not sit by as our future is at stake, we will take action and demand a livable future.

We have eleven years left to mitigate the worst impacts of climate change. At 11:11 AM, we will walk out from our classes or workplaces, and meet at the Hannah Administration Building to hear from students and other speakers about the fight for climate and environmental justice.

We demand action across the whole spectrum of climate justice issues including divesting money from fossil fuels and the carceral state to invest in renewable energy, achieving total carbon neutrality by 2030, and making real progress towards a future for all of us. A full list of demands will be posted before the event.

We are also looking for volunteers to get involved with organizing! If you share our sense of urgency for this work, message organizers on Facebook. #ClimateStrike #FridaysForFuture
