Activists Announce Peoples Climate March

Source: Huffington Post

A coalition of multiple organizations is seeking to mobilize crowds in major cities to demonstrate against President Donald Trumps environmental policies.

(Its the latest action following the Womens March on Saturday, which appeared to rival the crowds that showed up for Trumps Inauguration in Washington D.C. a day earlier.)

On Wednesday, The Sierra Club, one of the organizations thats involved, announced it will sponsor a Peoples Climate March on April 29, 2017 in Washington D.C. and elsewhere around the country.

April 29th falls on the Saturday before Trumps 100th day in office (thats April 30th), giving the march special import, organizers said.

We could also just call it a wake for the EPA and evidence based science.

Just make sure you do not have more people than Trump's Inauguration because that pisses Trump off.

Poor choice of words! The Women's March stomped the low-turnout and low-enthusiasm coronation!

Who is this guy at HP? Only has about 4 comments so far and nobody there has corrected this alternative fact he spewed yet.

11. "Which appeared to rival the crowds" at Trump's inauguration? Is that the new media meme?

The Women's March greatly outstripped the crowds at Trump's inauguration.

12. In. The most patriotic thing any of us can do is protest.

And in this war against the orange king, a shotgun approach works bests. Hit him on all fronts and keep the pressure on until he and his basket of deplorables buckle.
