New York on September 17th,* 2023!
With wildfire smoke choking the air we breathe, hurricanes and floods threatening our homes, global wars threatening lives, and toxic pollution making us sick, it has never been more urgent to end our dependence on the leading cause of these crises – fossil fuels. As people of faith and conscience, our values call us into action to protect our communities and all of Life by ending the era of fossil fuels.
In New York this September, the United Nations will gather world leaders for a first-of-its-kind Climate Ambition Summit to demand that nations stop developing new oil, gas and coal projects and begin phasing out fossil fuels once and for all. This is a pivotal opportunity to call on President Biden to reverse course from his recent approvals for mega-polluting projects like the Willow Oil Drilling Project and the Mountain Valley Pipeline, and earn his seat at the UN Climate Ambition Summit. But it will take all of us acting together to make sure he does.
This September, in the largest climate march since the pandemic, thousands will march in New York City to demand President Biden take bold action to End Fossil Fuels. Fill out this form to join the Faith Hub for the March to End Fossil Fuels. If you can commit to recruiting 5 or more people from your community to join the Faith Hub, sign up to be a Hub Captain!

*We recognize this mobilization is planned for the second day of Rosh Hashanah. There were a number of factors that led the mobilization coordinators to choose this date, and they did not make this decision lightly. We deeply respect Jewish communities have different relationships with protest and social action during the High Holidays. We honor and affirm that many Jewish communities and organizations will be praying at this time and celebrate their observance.
