Climate march in South Lake Tahoe

Sierra Nevada Alliance is organizing a regional March for Climate on April 29. The march in South Lake Tahoe is one of more than 300 happening nationwide and internationally inspired by the historic People’s Climate Mobilization in Washington, D.C.

The march comes on the 100th day of the Trump administration. The purpose is to march in solidarity with communities most affected by the rolling back of hard-won protections for the climate; assaults on air, water and land; and direct attacks on working families, indigenous peoples, people of color, immigrants, LGBTQIA, women, young people, low-income communities and many more.

Organizers say this mobilization is about bringing solutions to the table and targeting elected leaders, especially at the local and state levels, to take bold action.

Locally, people will meet at 10am at Lakeview Commons in South Lake Tahoe and begin marching at 10:30am toward the Earth Day celebration at Bijou Community Park. The march will conclude with a couple of speeches.
