PREVIEW

Protesters march through lower Manhattan holding a sign shaped like an orca that reads 'EAT THE RICH SAVE THE PLANET,' a sign shaped like a life preserver ring that reads 'SAVE OUR FUTURE' and signs that read 'TURN UP THE HEAT ON CITI' 'RISING GENERATIONS NOT RISING TEMPERATURES.' Climate demonstrators in New York join Gulf South frontline community environmental justice advocates for a rally at Zuccotti Park in the center of the financial district and then a march to Citi's headquarters where activists engaged in a non-violent mass civil disobedience barricading the entrance to the building. The demonstration comes at the end of the Gulf Solidarity Week of Climate Actions, part of climate activists Summer Of Heat campaign against Wall Street's financing of fossil fuels.
