Why? Why Not?
Help spread the word. Every share matters.
Never Stop Asking Questions
Why? Why Not? In every language on the planet, children ask these questions over, and over, and over. They ask the first to understand the world around them, and they ask the second when they want to change that world.
We want people of all ages to ask those questions—of their friends, their social networks and, most importantly, their elected representatives—and keep asking them until the lies of the deniers and their vested interests run out.

The Next Generation Asks World Leaders at UN: Why Not Act on Climate Change?

People's Climate March
On September 23, 2014, world leaders convened in New York City for the UN Climate Summit.
UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon urged governments to support an ambitious global agreement to dramatically reduce emissions and catalyze climate action.
To support the UN’s efforts to get world leaders talking about solutions, we took to the streets on September 21.
The People’s Climate March demonstrated, through the largest march for climate the world has ever seen, that we demand actions, not words.
400,000 people attended the march in New York City
2,642 events world wide
162 countries participated
