Friday 23rd - Walk to Stop Ecocide, as part of the Global Climate March

Join the global Walk to Stop Ecocide as a block within the Global Climate March. Led by, among others, Kevin Patel.

Approx programme of the New York City march:
- 2pm Foley Square
- March to Battery park
- 3/3.30pm Rally and speakers
- 4pm end 

Ecocide Law is one of the four youth demands, from organizers Fridays for Future NYC:

(4) We demand all governments declare support for the recognition of ecocide (mass damage and destruction of ecosystems) as an international crime. Climate crisis and biodiversity loss are symptoms. Ecocide is a root cause, and it will continue with impunity unless a strong legal deterrent is put in place. We call on governments to protect nature, climate and our future and declare support for a law to stop ecocide.
