Join students from around the Bay Area as we strike for climate change along with youth in Canada and other countries. We will meet in front of the Heart in Union Square at 10 am and march until we reach KGOTV 7 in San Francisco. From there we will strike around the area then we will head to Embarcadero Plaza where several student speakers will speak about their experiences with youth activism and climate change. Hope to see you there:)
