DESCRIPTION:We\, the youth of America\, are striking in Hartford and aroun
 d the country because decades of inaction has left us with just 11 years t
 o change the trajectory of the worst effects of climate change\, according
  to the Oct 2018 UN IPCC Report. \n\nWe are striking because our world lea
 ders have yet to acknowledge\, prioritize\, or properly address our climat
 e crisis. \n\nWe are striking because marginalized communities across our 
 nation —especially communities of color\, disabled communities\, and low
 - income communities—  are already disproportionately impacted by climat
 e change. \n\nWe are striking because if the social order is disrupted by 
 our refusal to attend school\, then the system is forced to face the clima
 te crisis and enact change. With our futures at stake\, we call for radica
 l legislative action to combat climate change and its countless detrimenta
 l effects on the American people. \n\nWe are striking for the Green New De
 al\, for a fair and just transition to a 100% renewable economy\, and for 
 ending the creation of additional fossil fuel infrastructure. Additionally
 \, we believe the climate crisis should be declared a national emergency b
 ecause we are running out of time.
